JUNIOR RUGBY LEAGUE AWARDS

Junior Rugby League Awards 2024

Congratulations to the Winners of the Junior Rugby League Awards for London & South-East. With over 30 Nominees from 8 different Community Clubs across the region there were difficult decisions involved given the high quality of the Nominees. However, the winners were all outstanding and were selected by a panel from the London Broncos, the London Rugby League Foundation, the London Junior League and the RFL.


It was a great event with the presentation taking place in front of a bumper crowd at the London Broncos, with awards being presented by former Broncos player and England International Ikram Butt. Attendees also got to see a fantastic match of Super League, which the Broncos were desperately unlucky not to win.


We now look forward to many of the players involved taking part in the London Broncos Talent Pathway over the next few years.
