Initially formed as the Southport Football Club the Southport Tigers compete in both the junior and senior Gold Coast Rugby League competitions. The club is based at Owen Park in Southport, Queensland, Australia.[1]

History

There has been a long history of Southport being represented in Rugby league dating back to the 1930s. They were then known as the Southport Wanderers. In 1931, the Southport Wanderers were the A Grade undefeated Premiers winning the Plunket Cup in that year. The Southport Wanderers Football Club A Grade side were the South Coast League Premiers and winners of the Mathias Cup in 1939.[citation needed] Southport also played local competition in the late forties and early fifties. The Southport Wanderers also had south coast representative teams in the Brisbane Rugby League Premiership competition.

In the late fifties the team was revived as the All Whites. The team was resurrected again in the sixties as the Gold Coast R.L.F.C. In 1966 they lost the grand final to Seagulls. In 1968 the Gold Coast Tigers won the grand final against the Seagulls and won the Caltex Cup the same year. Gold Coast Tigers beat Seagulls again in the grand final in 1972 and went on to win the grand final in 1976 and 1977.[2]

In 1978 Gold Coast Tigers changed the name to the Southport Tigers to accommodate new Gold Coast clubs. Southport Tigers went on to win the grand final of the Gold Coast competition in 1980, 1981, 1986, 1987 and 1988.
