Wikipedia - Riverina Rhinos
Riverina Rhinos is an Australian association football club based in the city of Griffith, New South Wales. The club was founded in 2014 and as of 2017 competes in the ACT based NPL Capital Football.
History
Foundation and early years
Riverina Rhinos were founded in 2014 as a junior club and competed in the NSW State League system. Originally the club was accepted into the NSW Regional League and Regional Conference for U12s - U15s where it competed for three years.
Move to NPL Capital Football
7 November 2016, Capital Football announced the introduction of Riverina Rhinos for the men's and boy's National Premier Leagues Capital Football for 2017 onwards. As part of the announcement, Capital Football CEO Phil Brown said the organisation was looking forward to having another strong club join the growing league.
18 November 2016, Capital Football CEO Phil Brown was questioned by the media regarding the introduction of Riverina Rhinos being linked to a secret proposition by the federation body to submit a proposal for a future Canberra based A-League team. The addition of the Riverina region to a Capital Football bid would significantly bring the bid closer to the one million people catchment benchmark that FFA chief executive David Gallop has supposedly set as one of the criteria for interested bids. Phil Brown confirmed the Riverina Rhinos will be joining the ACT NPL leagues system but rejected it was connected to a future A-League bid.
The Rhinos finished its first season in the NPL in 9th place in the league, two points above wooden spooners Monaro Panthers and eight points behind 8th placed Woden-Weston FC. Riverina did not qualify for the finals series.
Riverina Rhinos har en stolt historie og har vunnet flere store trofeer, inkludert National Premier Leagues Northern New South Wales-mesterskapet i 2019. Laget er kjent for sitt offensive spill og har produsert flere spillere som har gått videre til å spille på internasjonalt nivå.
Riverina Rhinos spiller sine hjemmekamper på Eric Weissel Oval, et moderne anlegg som ligger i hjertet av Wagga Wagga. Laget har en lojal tilhengerskare som alltid støtter laget, uansett vær.
Riverina Rhinos er et viktig medlem av lokalsamfunnet og spiller en aktiv rolle i å fremme fotball i regionen. Laget driver flere ungdomsprogrammer og samarbeider med lokale skoler for å inspirere neste generasjon spillere.
