CVD Edensor Park Cobras


The CVD Cobras are a rugby league club located in Sydney's South Western suburbs. They play in the Parramatta District Junior Rugby League.

History

The formation of the Edensor Park Cobras Junior Rugby League Football Club was first discussed in a meeting in the Staff Room of Governor Phillip King Primary School in 1990 between Steve Stretton and John Dunn.
Established in 1991, the first Season featured teams in the U/7, U/8, U/10, U/11 and U/13 competitions.
The year 2000 saw the Club celebrate its 10th anniversary with a special commemorative jersey being produced, which each player in the 2000 season kept as a special memento.
In 2001 the Cobras became a sub club of Cabra-Vale Diggers, and changed their name to CVD Cobras. This saw the addition of yellow to the clubs traditional colours of red and blue.
Since their inception, the cobras have proved they are a club not to be taken lightly, with at least one team reaching the Grand Finals in every season.

Recent years

Often regarded as a junior club, the Cobras in recent years have ventured into the C Grade competition where they have won the 2nd Division competition in 2007 and 2008. The 2009 season sees the inauguration of the Cobras to the 2nd Division A Grade competition. The club now fields teams in every age group from U/6's to A Grade. The Cobras won the Parramatta Club Of The Year Award in 2006, 2007 and were finalists in 2008.
