Women's State of Origin

The Harvey Norman Women's State of Origin clash took place at Sunshine Coast Stadium on Friday, November 13 with Queensland defeating NSW.

The Blues had won the past four interstate fixtures.

The match was officially been declared a sellout with all tickets snapped up by Thursday afternoon.

"Harvey Norman Women’s State of Origin is incredibly important to us. We’re delighted to be able to make history on the Sunshine Coast tomorrow, playing the first Women’s Origin in Queensland," NRL CEO Andrew Abdo said.

"The Commission made it a priority this year to ensure we completed our entire elite women’s schedule, as well as the men, and we’re proud that despite the challenges of COVID we’ll achieve that goal.

"I want to thank the Sunshine Coast community for their support of rugby league this year. Firstly, hosting our Premiers the Melbourne Storm and now reaching our venue capacity for Women’s Origin.

"The Sunshine Coast will be beamed live into households across the country tomorrow night, that’s excellent exposure for a tourist centre like the Sunshine Coast."
