Wikipedia - Redcliffe Dolphins
Redcliffe Dolphins are a Semi-professional rugby league club based in Redcliffe, Queensland, Australia. Founded in 1947, they were accepted into the Brisbane Rugby League (BRL) premiership competition in 1960, and since 1996 have played in the Queensland Cup. The Redcliffe Dolphins thrived in the BRL. However, the 1988 admission of the Brisbane Broncos team in the New South Wales Rugby League competition caused the decline of the BRL.
Although a separately licensed Dolphins (NRL) team currently competes in the fully professional national competition, the Redcliffe squad continues to play in the Queensland competition. Through this NRL licence, the Dolphins organisation has become the only former BRL club to regain top-flight status after that competition became a second-tier league with the advent of the Brisbane Broncos in 1988.
History
Founded on 27 February 1947, Redcliffe District Rugby League Football Club Inc. (known as Shellgrit) entered Under 17, Reserve Grade and First Grade teams in that year's Sandgate Suburban Rugby League competition. Through the 1950s, Redcliffe also played in the Kilcoy, Murrumba and Geraghty Cup competitions. On 19 November 1959, Redcliffe received full district club status and was accepted into the Brisbane first grade competition.
Throughout the 1960s, a number of famous players came through the ranks of the Dolphins to represent Queensland and Australia, including Trevor Harken and Arthur Beetson. In 1965, Redcliffe won its first Brisbane Rugby League Premiership. In 1972, Redcliffe were coached by former Kangaroo Ken Day. Redcliffe's halfback Greg Oliphant was selected to go on the 1978 Kangaroo tour but did not play in any Test matches. Australian national coach Frank Stanton coached Redcliffe in 1980. The Redcliffe club won further premierships in 1994, 1996 and 1997 and has also appeared in 12 Queensland Cup grand finals, making it the most successful team in that competition.
In the 2000s, a new National Rugby League team based on the Gold Coast proposed calling itself the Gold Coast Dolphins. Redcliffe threatened legal action, so the team was alternatively named the Gold Coast Titans.
Redcliffe defeated Toowoomba in the 2006 Queensland Cup grand final at Suncorp Stadium under the coaching of Anthony Griffin. In 2018, Redcliffe won their sixth Queensland Cup title, defeating Easts Tigers 36-22.
The team's colors are red and white, and they are often referred to as the "Dolphins" by their fans. The Redcliffe Dolphins have a rich history in the sport, with a number of premiership wins and a strong reputation for producing talented players who go on to play at higher levels.
The team plays their home games at Dolphin Stadium, a modern and well-equipped venue that provides a great atmosphere for fans to support their team. The Redcliffe Dolphins have a dedicated fan base who are known for their passion and loyalty to the team.
Overall, the Redcliffe Dolphins are a respected and competitive team in the QRL, with a strong tradition of success and a bright future ahead.
