Coffs Harbour Crusaders are the keystone of the Coffs Harbour Friday Night Junior Rugby Competition. They encompass four rugby clubs with all Coffs Harbour based Junior players registering as a Coffs Crusader and then being allocated to a side based on preference, school and team numbers.
The Crusaders have noticed a large number of schools in the region that don't have a rugby playing contingent. This was identified as a growth opportunity and subsequently the Crusaders chose to participate in the pilot of the 2019 Get Into Rugby Program to drive their recruitment for the season.
