They compete in the National Rugby League (NRL), Australasia's premier Rugby league competition. The Sharks, as they are commonly known, were admitted to the New South Wales Rugby League premiership, predecessor of the Australian Rugby League and the current National Rugby League competition, in January 1967. The club competed in every premiership season since then and during the Super League war joined the rebel competition before continuing on in the re-united NRL Premiership. Despite being in the competition for 47 years and appearing in three Grand Finals, the Sharks have yet to win a premiership, however, they have won the minor premiership twice, in 1988 and 1999.
