RHINOS 2012!!!
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 12th season in the Gridiron Queensland League; Grand Finalists for 2005, 2006, 2008 and 2011 in seniors and grand finalists in juniors in 2004, 2008 and 2011. 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 May 27, with the opening game in last August. With 12 regular season games the final is held in November/December. We are always looking for more players and coaches. Want more information? Call David Begg (club president) on 0434 630 769. You can also follow us on facebook. See "Rhinos Gridiron".
