St George - Illawarra Dragons

The home of the Red and white St George Illawarra Dragons.

St George and the Dragon are synonymous with the game of Rugby League.

St George had its beginnings in Rockdale Town Hall in 1908 when an attempt to launch the Dragons for the first time was unsuccessful. A committee for the St George Rugby League Football Club was elected with Ald. W. Taylor as president. Unfortunately due to pressure from Rugby Union influences only three players signed to play.

Rugby League birth in the Illawarra began back in 1910 where at a meeting at the old Termines Hotel (Near Wollongong Railway station) plans were put in place to organise and run the first competitions.
