RHINOS 2013


Founded by four dedicated players who decided a gridiron team was needed on Brisbane's north side, the Rhinos American Football Club was established in 2001. We are now preparing for the club's 13th season in the Gridiron Queensland League; Grand Finalists for 2005, 2006, 2008 and 2011 in seniors and grand finalists in juniors in 2004, 2008, 2011 and 2012. A number of Rhinos American Football Club players have gained selection on the state and national gridiron teams.

Want to try American Football? Pre-season starts in May, with fitness seasons starting soon and the opening game in August. With 10 regular season games the final is held in November/December. We are always looking for more players and coaches. Want more information? Call Coach Mark on 0412 930 617. You can also follow us on facebook. See "Rhinos Gridiron".
