    Top level domestic competition - Jamaica have a 6 team competition that runs over 10 weeks. The teams are then seeded and a knock out competition is played. Planning is underway to have a 7 team competition in 2009 with Denham Town joining the league.

     

    History - Jamaica fall under the West Indies Rugby League Federation. The national competition commenced in 2005. In March 2007 the Jamaican National team played their first international against the West Yorkshire Police.

     

    In July/August 2007 Jamaica went on a tour of the United States. Jamaica played the Jacksonville Axemen, a team from the American National Rugby League. The tour assisted with the further development of players and the sport in general.

     

    The British Royal Air Force plan to tour Jamaica in January 2008. The Air Force will be involved in promoting rugby league and assisting disadvantaged communities.

     

    Recently the idea has emerged for an international competition in 2009 involving South Africa, United States and Jamaica
