The 2018 Jersey Flegg Minor Premiers Newcastle Knights will kick their season off against last years runners-up Penrith Panthers on Saturday, 23rd March after an all competition bye for Round 1.
The Panthers fell short against the Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks in a memorable grand final last year, and will face tough opposition from the Knights for the Under 20s first hit-out.
2019 marks the second season since the Jersey Flegg Cup returned to the NSWRL major competitions calendar to replace the NRL Under-20s National Youth Competition.
The competition is named after Harry “Jersey” Flegg, who played for the Eastern Suburbs in 1908 and 1909, and was a prominent administrator of the game up until 1960.
Jersey Flegg Cup games will be played over two 35-minute halves, in line with the NSWRL's under-18s SG Ball Cup competition. It will run for 24 rounds with the grand final to be played on Sunday, 29th September.
