Countdown to the 2023 Senior State Cup

Countdown to the 2023 Senior State Cup

NSW Oztag are set to welcome 179 teams to Coffs Harbour this week ahead of the highly anticipated Senior State Cup tournament.

The 2023 Senior State Championships kicks off on Friday 17 March in Coffs Hsarbour, with teams determined to lay it all on the line for the championship title.

With games expected to be taken to another level of brilliance, there are several teams worth keeping an eye on this weekend.

Baulkham Hills Men’s 20s have the potential to go back-to-back this weekend, but the likes of Parramatta, Cronulla and Easts will make it no easy feat after there was only one-point differences in both Semi Finals at the 2022 Senior State Cup.

The Central Coast Women’s 20s, Souths Mixed Opens and Penrith Men’s 30s will all be gunning for a three-peat, while both Penrith Senior Mixed and Central Coast Men’s 40s will be striving to make it four in a row.

The question on everybody’s mind is whether Central Coast Men’s Opens can go back-to-back after putting an end to Homebush’s six-year reign? Or will hot contenders – Souths, St George and Penrith stand in their way?

Central Coast will be looking to continue their nine-year Club Championship dynasty – awarded to the most successful association across all divisions. However, two-time runners up, Souths and Cronulla will no doubt be looking to end this incredible streak.  

NSW Oztag look forward to welcoming all teams and spectators to the beautiful Coffs Coast, for the highly anticipated Senior State Cup tournament.

“The weather looks good and the fields are in perfect condition, we’re ready to go… Good luck everyone,” Tournament Director, Bill Harrigan said.

Be sure to check out the Ultimate Guide for all the fun stuff to do and great places to eat while on the Coffs Coast!

Teams are encouraged to book in for their official team photograph with IB Images via their online booking system, which will place them in the priority system for action shots.

Games will commence at 9.30am on Friday. Keep up to date with the live fixtures and ladder via SportsFix or our website.

Livestream will be via the NSW Oztag Facebook page, with coverage kicking off at 8.30am on Sunday 19 March.

The 2023 NSW Junior State Championships 11s-17s came to a successful conclusion in Coffs Harbour following three days of quality Oztag.

The much-anticipated tournament kicked off on Friday 24 February and welcomed 288 teams to Coffs Harbour – well-prepared and determined to take out the Championship title.

A packed out C.ex Stadium saw spectators on the edge of their seats come Finals day, as numerous games resulted in a one-point difference or came down to exhilarating extra time drop offs.

Six-time gold medalists, Baulkham Hills Girls 16s continued their reign as State Cup Champions after defeating Central Coast by two in a competitive Grand Final showdown.

Souths Girls 13s secured their fifth consecutive championship, while the Central Coast Girls 14s made it four in a row.

The nail-biter that was the Boys 13s Grand Final between Cronulla and Nepean, finished in a 3-3 draw – sending them into extra time. Drop off went back and forth, before Cronulla secured the victory with a show-and-go through the middle.

For the Under 17s divisions, the stakes were raised – being their last Junior State Cup. The intensity and emotion evident as teams gave it their all right up until the full-time buzzer.

The Souths Girls 17s reclaimed the title, defeating 2022 champions, Wollongong in a nail-biting 3-2 clash, while Baulkham Hills Boys 17s went back-to-back, beating ACT 4-2 in what was a sensational game of Oztag.

Following a tight race between two strong associations, NSW Oztag are pleased to announce the Club Champions for 2023 – on 94 points, Baulkham Hills.

All 14 of their teams qualified for Quarter Finals, 13 made Semis and seven advanced to the Grand Final, of which five took home gold – a testament to the players, coaching staff and all involved with the club.

In second place and well-deserved was Souths on 91 points, and in third was 2022 Champions – Central Coast on 66.
