History

The original Eumundi club played in the North Coast Rugby Union competition. Clubs in this competition would move over to rugby league.[2][3]

It was unanimously decided to play 'the 'League' game for the ensuing year in place of 'Union[.]'

From a report of the North Coast Rugby Union AGM.[3]

A revived Eumundi returned to rugby union in the 21st century playing mainly in the junior ranks. They fielded an adult side for the first time since 1919 in 2020.[4][5]

In 2022 the club is scheduled to host an A grade fixture for the first time. The contest is due to be between University and Caloundra.[6]
