DEVON SHARKS
were formed in 2006 as part of an initiative from the Rugby Football League to form new clubs for the Summer Rugby League Conference. Originally set up at Newton Abbot All Whites Rackerhayes ground, in 2008 the Sharks re-located to their own ground at Easterfields Lane, overlooking Torbay. In 2009, the club exceeded all expectations, winning the South West Grand Final and reaching the National Semi Final at Harlequins Twickenham Stoop. SHARKS WEBSITE HERE
EXETER CENTURIONS
are based at Flowerpots Field near St.Davids Station and were formed by ex Basingstoke Beasts founder Joe Catcheside. Despite a relative lack of success on the field, the Centurions are one of the more progressive sides in the Rugby League Conference - co hosting the 2009 South West Nines competition and travelling to Weymouth last year to play newboys South Dorset Giants in their foundation year. They had their best ever season in 2009, reaching the play offs and South West Cup Final.
EXETER UNIVERSITY
are members of the Student Rugby League and currently holders of the South West Nines trophy which they won beating Exeter Centurions in the 2009 final at Duckes Meadow.
