Hunters Hill Rugby is not only one of Sydney's oldest and most famous rugby clubs, but is also regarded as one the strongest!  We pride ourselves on our Motto - Facta non Verba (deeds not words).

Our teams compete in the NSW Sydney Suburban competition - and after a highly successful season in Division One this year (second in the Club Championship, and Colts Premiership) - the club is seeking expressions of interest to join and complement our highly talented program as either a Coach or Manager.  We have opportunities across our 5 Senior Grades as well as Colts (U21s).

2025 is already looking to be an exciting year - with the the best clubhouse and player faciltiies in Sydney - and exciting recruitment/retention already well underway.
