From the President and CEO
Welcome to the New York Knights Rugby League Football Club website. We
hope that it keeps fans and players of Rugby League from around the
world entertained and informed.
It is an exiting time for Rugby League in the USA with interest in "The
Greatest Game of All" rapidly growing. With increased coverage of the
game on television here in the United States, Rugby League is now being
exposed to an audience that is genuinely intrigued about the sport!
Everyone is aware that New York is a melting pot of different cultures,
and the New York Knights are no different. In our first full season
together we had players who where born in over TEN different countries
including the USA, Japan, Trinidad, China, Australia, South Africa, Sri
Lanka, New Zealand, England and Scotland! The diversity of our club is
one of the main reasons for our success, both on and off the field.
The Knights are made up of players of with different ranges of ability;
from players who have played professionally in Australia, England, or
France to players who are playing the game for the very first time. It
is a true testament to our Club when all players are able to work
together to help each other have an enjoyable Rugby League experience.
We are also fortunate to have Australia's Newcastle Knights as our
"sister" club. Over the years we have received a tremendous amount of
support from the club and from the people of Newcastle! Special thanks
go out to Knights Operations Manager Stephen Crowe, Former Chairman
Michael Hill and Michael Tyler and to Head Coach Brian Smith for all of
their efforts to ensure the Knights success here in the America!
I would also like to thank David Niu, the President of the AMNRL, for
his support and enthusiasm for Rugby League here in America!
Thank you again for your continued interest and support of the New York
Knights this 2007 Season!
Yours in Rugby League,
Rob Balachandran
