The NSW Touch Association is pleased to announce the final State of Origin Squads for the 2020 State of Origin series being played later this year after being postponed due to COVID-19.
Squads will gather in Sydney on March 26-28 for the final team selections as NSWTA prepare to defend the SOO shield in Coffs Harbour on June 18-19, 2021.
The NSW Touch Association Men’s Open team has been selected and will be announced during the final team’s selection process. Those players will be contacted privately by the coach next week and will still be required to attend the NSW Touch Association on Friday, March 26, in line with other divisions trialing that evening.
Players in a number of squads have been identified as potential cross-over players for both Mixed Open and Mixed Seniors should they not be successful in being selected into the final team of their current squad.
Team NSW Head Coaches will discuss this option with those players prior to the selection weekend, in essence giving them two opportunities to represent NSW.
NB. Following the postponement of the series in 2020, it was agreed by both NSWTA and QTF that age eligibility would remain the same as was for the 2020 series, even though it is being played in 2021. i.e. For a 40’s division player, you would need to be born in 1980 or before to be eligible, not 1981.
