2024 Development Squads selection process

The Canberra Region Rugby League (CRRL) and Canberra Raiders will implement an updated process to select the 2024 U14's and U15's Boys Development Squads.

Both age groups will participate in a "Magic Round" style format, where every team in each division will play at the same venue, providing all players in both age groups with the opportunity to be seen.

The U15's games will take place in Round 11 on Sunday, August 4th, at Melba Playing Fields, while the U14's games will be held in Round 12 on Sunday, August 11th, at Walker Park in Yass.

Coaches and/or managers must submit their team lists in advance to ensure the lists are distributed to the selection panel on the day.

The two teams with a bye in these rounds will be observed twice in their regular scheduled rounds before the "magic round" weekends. 

Two teams, each consisting of 20 players, will be selected from both age groups, representing both the North and South regions.

The four squads will be announced on Monday, August 19th, and training will commence on Wednesday, August 21st, at NSWRL HQ, Bruce.

For any enquiries, please contact Tim Wykes, the Canberra Raiders Pathways and Performance Manager, at twykes@raiders.com.au.
