Queensland Rugby League Central Division

The Central Division of the Queensland Rugby League is responsible for the promotion, administration, and facilitation of rugby league throughout most of regional Queensland. Regional areas include the Darling Downs, Wide Bay–Burnett, the South West, the Central West, and Fitzroy & Mackay.

The Division was formed in 2010 as part of an amalgamation between the Central, South West, and Wide Bay divisions. Shortly after the amalgamation, three Regions of the Central Rugby League were established. The Division's three regions are the Capricorn Region, responsible for the former Central Division, the South West Region, responsible for the former South West Division, and the Wide Bay Region responsible for the former Wide Bay Division.
