-
Never before has the rich history of rugby at Newomgton been compiled into one volume. From its early, tenative steps on the banks of Sydney's Parramatta River at Silverwater to the accomplished and slick rugby programme of the new century at Stanmore, '150 Years of Newington Rugby 1869-2019' traces the history of College rugby. This book reveals the early players, coaches and competitors that formed an integral part of the establishment of rugby in New South Wales, through to the present day where Newington's contribution to schoolboy rugby and the wider rugby world ramains as significant as ever. Meticulously recounted by author Barry Ross, Newington's first rugby players pulled on their boots 150 years ago. Over the following decades, the College players in all grades and age groups, its premiership and championship sides, and the many international and 'immortal' players developed on the fields at Stanmore have made unique contributions to rugby at Newington. This is their story.
