The “Saints” Story

 

It was on Melbourne Cup Day 1982 when St Marys Rugby League Club first opened its doors on the corner of Forrester & Boronia roads, St Marys, fulfilling a two-decade dream of the inaugural Club Board and becoming the social centrepiece of the district.

The Club’s increasing success has seen it go from strength-to-strength and today, we are proud to provide services to more than 50,000 members – still being guided by the same purpose of being a community club, first and foremost.

On Melbourne Cup Day 2022, St Marys Rugby League Club celebrated its 40th birthday, which coincided with the opening of our stunning $25 million development, The Western Foyer and Events Centre. Not only was this the realisation of another long-term dream, it was one of our crowning achievements.

Our extensive facilities and services equal or surpass any other hospitality venue in Australia and our 50,000-plus members are rightly very proud of it.

From humble beginnings we now boast 4 fabulous restaurants, 5 custom bars, multiple lounge areas, one of the best outdoor terraces in the region, Saints Sports Bar – Sydney’s newest American-styled sports bar with stadium-like state-of-the-art audio and visual systems, weekend family entertainment at Go Bananas and, a world-class Events Centre.

In addition, the 4-star globally branded Holiday Inn Sydney St Marys is owned and operated by the Club and is conveniently located on-site.

Whilst the licensed Club is relatively young, our rugby league roots can be traced back more than a century to 1908.

Over this time Saints has developed into a rugby league powerhouse – in 2022 proudly supporting and nurturing the development of 60 rugby league sides from under 5s through to the Ron Massey Cup.

With over 1000 players, we are regarded as one of the most successful rugby league clubs in the history of the game. We are very proud of our association with Panthers and being integral in their pathways program through our Ron Massey Cup team.

Saints has a well-respected and considered approach to our social responsibility. This is achieved by actively delivering on our Club’s values and mission statement “to make a significant difference to the social and economic wellbeing of our community”.

While Saints has grown over the years, we still pay homage to our proud history both on and off the field. We invite you to enjoy our facilities and experience our friendly Saints hospitality for yourself.

After all, we’re all about making it memorable.
