History
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3d/StateOfOrigin-coloured-locator.png/260px-StateOfOrigin-coloured-locator.png)
Establishment of wheelchair rugby league
[edit]Wheelchair rugby league was developed in France in 2000 and introduced to Australia by a touring French team in 2004.[1][2] Interest in the sport increased when the first World Cup was held in Sydney in November 2008[3] and in December 2009 it was announced that a wheelchair rugby league competition would be launched in New South Wales.[4] The sport continued to develop in the Sydney area and the Australian Wheelchair Rugby League had grown to eight teams by 2014 when exhibition matches and events were first held in Queensland as part of an effort to expand the game within Australia.[5][6][7]
Wheelchair Interstate Challenge (2015–2018)
[edit]The inaugural interstate competition took place at the Eagles Sports Complex, Mansfield, on 2 July 2015 with New South Wales winning 49–4 in a one-off match.[6][8][9] It was proposed that the competition could be expanded into a three-match series.[10] In 2016, the challenge was played as a two-match series at the Sleeman Sports Complex in Brisbane on the weekend before Game II of the 2016 State of Origin series. New South Wales won 84–0 and 90–6 for a 2–0 series win.[11][12][13] The same venue and format was used in June 2017 as New South Wales remained unbeaten to retain their title.[11][14] In 2018, the challenge reverted to a single-match format and was won 54–18 by New South Wales. It was played at the Quaycentre, Sydney Olympic Park, on the same day as Game II of the 2018 State of Origin series at the nearby ANZ Stadium.[15][16]
Wheelchair State of Origin (2019–2022)
[edit]In 2019, the match was played under the State of Origin name. On 6 July, New South Wales won 52–4 in front of an estimated crowd of 1,000 at the Quaycentre.[17][18][19] The competition was cancelled in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and the June 2021 fixture was postponed until January 2022 when it was played without spectators at the Whitlam Centre, Liverpool. Queensland claimed the title for the first time with a 50–30 win.[20][21] In July 2022, Queensland retained the title with a 49–24 win at the Townsville Stadium.[22][23]
Wheelchair State Challenge (2023–present)
