The Sydney Roosters Junior Representative sides have capped off arguably the best season in the Club's long-standing history with a successful 2022 Awards Night.

Players, staff, friends, family and guest speakers were present at Easts Leagues in Bondi Junction on Monday night to celebrate the Harold Matthews Cup (Mens under 17s), Tarsha Gale Cup (Womens under 18s) and SG Ball Cup (Mens under 19s) seasons.

All three teams enjoyed exceptional results, which included:

The Harold Matthews Cup side finishing the regular season in second place - their best ever result in Club history - and falling just short of a Grand Final berth.
The SG Ball Cup side claiming the Minor Premiership and qualifying for their first Grand Final since 2014.
The Tarsha Gale Cup side winning both the Minor Premiership and inaugural Premiership in an outstanding season that saw them go through undefeated.

General Manager of Football Programs Craig Walker was thrilled with the Junior Representative side's results through the year as well as the large turnout for the presentations in what was a fitting finale for everyone involved.

“It was a great night to celebrate one of the best in the Club’s history,” he said.

“It was not only great to celebrate the season that we had but to see some special guests including some of the NRLW players as well as Mitchell Aubusson and Jake Friend who spoke about their pathways experience both as players and coaches.

“We also presented our staff member of the year award, all the coaches spoke and a number of the parents were there in what was a high attendance.

“Blake Cavallaro did an exceptional job at organising the night and we had a high turnout of players and families.

“The award winners were all very gracious and spoke very well. It was a great way to cap off the year that was.”
