The NSWRL has announced the Harvey Norman NSW Women’s Under 19s squad for the Women’s Under 19s State of Origin match at Kayo Stadium in Redcliffe on Thursday 13 July.

The squad will be coached by Kate Mullaly, who is an assistant coach for the Harvey Norman NSW Sky Blues, and includes players who took part in the 2023 Harvey Norman Tarsha Gale Cup. The team is yet to be named.

Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs forward Monalisa Soliola played in last year’s Harvey Norman NSW Women’s Under 19s team which scored a decisive 22-6 win over Queensland.

The Harvey Norman NSW Women’s Under 19s team has not been beaten since the concept first started in 2019, winning every year apart from 2020 when the game was not played due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
