Philosophy

The SAFEPLAY CODE was developed with an emphasis on SAFETY and good conduct within the game of Rugby League.

The Code is designed to provide the best possible on-field environment for the 'junior' game of Rugby League by actively promoting control over undesirable actions.

It has been introduced for all players up to and including the Under 15 years age group.

The NSWRL trusts that players, coaches, parents and supporters wholeheartedly embrace the Code for the benefit of the players and the game.
