Deniliquin Blueeheelers have been approved by ProTen to join the competition in 2025

The reimagined Deniliquin Blueheelers Rugby League Club were unanimously accepted into the 2025 ProTen Competition.

“At this afternoon's AGM, the clubs present voted unanimously to accept the Deniliquin Blueheelers RLFC into the Western Riverina Community Cup for the 2025 season, under the provision of approval from the NSWRL,” a statement released by ProTen officials said.

“We will announce when the final decision has been made.”

After languishing for more than 50 years, Blueheelers president Kurt Longford has worked hard to bring rugby league back to the 2710 postcode.

”I am trying my best to re-establish our great game in AFL heartland.”
