The Sydney Roosters are a team in the National Rugby League (NRL), the premier rugby league football competition in Australia. From 1908 to 1994, they were known as Easts (or more formally, Eastern Suburbs) and from 1995 - 1999, the Sydney City Roosters.

Based in Bondi Junction in the eastern suburbs of Sydney, the Roosters rugby league club has existed since 1908, one of the foundation members in the then New South Wales Rugby League (NSWRL) competition, predecessor of the Australian Rugby League (ARL) and the current NRL competition. The Roosters merged their junior competition with that of Souths Juniors, but despite this, over recent years have developed championship junior teams. The Roosters are the only founding member of the New South Wales Rugby League to have an uninterrupted representation from 1908 through to the current competition, with 2006 being the clubs 99th consecutive season.

Club history

Foundation years

On the 24th of January, 1908 Eastern Suburbs decided at a meeting at Paddington Town Hall to leave behind its Union counterparts and enter into the NSWRL. Bringing with them their local playing strip as worn during the rugby union days consisting of red, blue, and white, the Eastern Suburbs District Rugby League Football Club was born.
