Hastings District Rugby League

The Hastings District Rugby League is a community rugby league competition. It features amateur teams from smaller towns around the Mid-North Coast and runs as a community competition similar to the Barwon Darling Rugby League and the Western Riverina Community Cup.

History
The Hastings League was established in 1920 as a rugby league competition on the Mid-North Coast of New South Wales. The competition partnered with the Group 3 Rugby League in the 1990s as the Group 3 Saturday League, but has since returned to the Hastings League name and remains separate from Group 3.

In 2018, the competition began a ladies tackle grade. This competition has now expanded to allow invitees from other Groups, become independent of the competition, and is known as the North Coast Women's Rugby League.

The competition was due to celebrate its centenary season in 2020 but this was delayed until 2021 by the COVID-19 pandemic.
