The Mal Meninga Cup, known as the Auswide Bank Mal Meninga Cup due to sponsorship, is a junior rugby league football competition based in Queensland, played between teams made up of players aged under 18. The competition, administered by the Queensland Rugby League, features the junior representative teams of Queensland Cup clubs.[1][2]
Since 2011, the winners of the Grand Final play the winners of the New South Wales’ under-18 competition, the S.G. Ball Cup, in the National Final.[3]
The Mal Meninga Cup is named after Mal Meninga, a 32-game Queensland representative and the most successful State of Origin coach of all time.[4]
