The Sydney Stars is a former Australian rugby union football team that competed in the National Rugby Championship (NRC) in 2014 and 2015. The Stars team was established as a joint venture between the Sydney University and Balmain rugby clubs, and was one of four New South Wales teams in the competition.[1]

The NRC was launched in 2014, reinstating the national competition after an absence of six years.[2] Sydney University was initially interested in entering the NRC competition as a stand-alone club,[3] but submitted a joint bid with Balmain as the Sydney Stars.[4]
