The Jersey Flegg Cup is a junior rugby league competition played in New South Wales, contested among teams made up of players aged 20 or under. The competition is administered by the New South Wales Rugby League (NSWRL), and is named for Eastern Suburbs foundation player and prominent administrator of the game, Harry "Jersey" Flegg.

History

The Cup began as an Under 19s age group competition, changing to Under 20s with the advent of the NRL in 1998. It was originally held as part of the NSWRL's Junior Representative Competition, which was played over 9–12 weeks early in the season. It then evolved to become a full season competition played over 26 rounds, culminating with the Grand Final held on the same day as the First Grade Premiership decider.

It ceased at the end of the 2007 season to make way for the NRL's new Under 20s tournament, the National Youth Competition (referred to as the Toyota Cup, followed by the Holden Cup), which commenced in 2008. 13 clubs fielded teams in the 2007 season; nine NRL clubs (Canberra, Canterbury-Bankstown, Cronulla-Sutherland, Manly Warringah, Newcastle, Parramatta, Penrith, South Sydney, and Sydney) along with the North Sydney Bears, the Central Coast Storm (an affiliate of NRL club Melbourne Storm[1]), and the Balmain Tigers and Western Suburbs Magpies (both affiliates of NRL club Wests Tigers). The St. George Illawarra Dragons elected not to field a team in 2007, in preparation for the NYC.

Following a decision to change the under-20s back to state-based competitions, the Jersey Flegg Cup returned in 2018.[2]
