These competitions encompass the Mal Meninga Cup (Under 19) and Cyril Connell Cup (Under 17) for leading male talent, as well as two female youth competitions backed by Harvey Norman. The Mal Meninga Cup – taken out by the Tweed Seagulls last year – will be played over nine rounds with the top six teams contesting the play-offs. The Cyril Connell Cup features a four team finals series, with each club having six regular season games to put their best foot forward and qualify for the crunch play-off games. Both the Harvey Norman Under 17 and Under 19 female competitions will also be played over six rounds with the top four to fight out the premiership. The Under 17s features a finals series for the first time as part of an expanded schedule. The junior statewide competitions action begins on February 8 with the Burleigh Bears up against the Ipswich Jets in Mal Meninga Cup and Harvey Norman Under 19 matches. The remaining Round 1 fixtures across all competitions will be played over the weekend of February 15-16. Fans who love to cast their eye over the next generation of talent are in for a treat in 2025, with some match-day programs set to feature five games between the same two clubs. This will occur on numerous occasions when the Hostplus Cup season starts in March. Wide Bay Bulls will compete solely in the Under 17 male and female competitions in 2025, with provision for 18-years old still in the catchment to play in these teams.

Commencing on the weekend of June 14-15, the 2025 season will feature the Ipswich Jets and the Northern Pride for the first time. The two competition newcomers will look to hit the ground running and emulate the debut seasons of the Western Clydesdales and Sunshine Coast Falcons. The Clydesdales and Falcons were a force throughout the 2024 season, winning a combined total of seven games across their respective campaigns. While the Falcons finished just one win outside of the top four, the Clydesdales progressed to the preliminary final weekend after finishing second. Ipswich is drawn to play the Central Queensland Capras in Round 1, while the Pride are away to the Brisbane Tigers. It is shaping up to be a fascinating start to the season, with the majority of clubs set to roll out youthful line ups given the more experienced players will be involved in the NRLW. QRL competitions manager Dave Maiden is expecting a highly-competitive BMD Premiership season. “As the season progresses, the competition will really heat up,” Maiden said. “All our clubs will be in the same boat, with many of the more experienced players lining up in the NRLW. “But what this does is create opportunities, especially for some of the future stars of our game. “The 19 year olds who step up to play in the BMD Premiership will only get better as they gain more game time, and adapt to the high standards required to compete consistently in a statewide competition.” Every team will play each other once throughout the regular season, with the top six teams to contest the finals series. The top two teams meet in the grand final on September 27 as part of a match-day program that also includes the Hostplus Cup premiership decider. Both the BMD Premiership and Hostplus Cup grand finals at Kayo Stadium will go out live across Fox League on Foxtel and Kayo. BMD Premiership Round 1 Saturday, June 14 Brisbane Tigers v Northern Pride @ Totally Workwear Stadium, 1pm Tweed Seagulls v Mackay Cutters @ Piggabeen Sports Complex, 1pm Central Queensland Capras v Ipswich Jets @ Rugby Park, 2pm Burleigh Bears v Western Clydesdales @ UAA Park, 3.30pm Norths Devils v Sunshine Coast Falcons @ Bishop Park, 4pm Sunday, June 15 Souths Logan Magpies v Wynnum Manly Seagulls @ Davies Park, 1.20pm For the full draw, click here. 2025 Hostplus Cup Draw Released QRL article by Michael Hillier Norths Devils will begin their quest for a fourth premiership in five years when the Hostplus Cup heavyweights meet the Redcliffe Dolphins in Round 1 of the 2025 season. The clash between the Devils and Dolphins headlines seven Hostplus Cup Round 1 games across the weekend of March 8-9. Ipswich Jets kick off their campaign at home in their annual Defence Force Appreciation Day match against the Townsville Blackhawks, while last season’s minor premiers the Northern Pride meet the Brisbane Tigers. After storming into last year’s preliminary finals, the PNG Hunters will look to carry that momentum into their opening round clash against the Mackay Cutters. Burleigh Bears, who last month unveiled former Penrith Panthers premiership-winning utility Tyrone Peachey as a key signing for 2025, will play the Central Queensland Capras in Round 1. The Capras are coming off a strong 2024 season, having featured in week two of the finals. Tweed Seagulls and Souths Logan Magpies are both eager to make a return to finals football after missing last year’s playoffs. Tweed meets Wynnum Manly in Round 1, while the Magpies have drawn the Western Clydesdales. Each club will play 20 games across 23 rounds. Country Week – presented by Ford and supported by the Queensland Government – is locked in for the weekend of July 26-27. The sparks will also fly early in the season, with clubs ready to battle out XXXX Rivalry Round in the third week of competition. Round 21 puts the spotlight on the immense contribution of licenced clubs and their endless support of grassroots rugby league thanks to the backing of Leagues Clubs Australia (LCA). Week 1 of the 2025 finals series will be played across the weekend of September 6-7, with all roads leading to the grand final on the final Saturday of that month. “We have so much to be excited about in 2025,” QRL competitions manager Dave Maiden said today. “There are rivalry derbies and blockbuster match ups everywhere you look, particularly in the opening rounds. “Every week we witness how much this competition means to our clubs and the many communities across Queensland, just by the pure effort alone that our players, coaches and support staff put in on the training paddock and on game day. “We look forward to supporting the journey of those with NRL aspirations, while also watching the most consistent teams lock horns in the 2025 finals series.” The QRL’s premier livestreaming platform Qplus.tv is back bigger and better in 2025, with every game live and on demand via Qplus.tv.
