The club was formed in 1914 as one of the founding members of South Coast Rugby League, and continue to participate in this league's local competition. HistoryOn May 30, 1914, Kiama kicked off the inaugural South Coast Rugby League competition with a 6-3 home win at Kiama Showground against nearest neighbour and soon to be biggest rivals, Gerringong. Gerringong, however, would go on to take out the premiership final with an 11-10 victory at the Kiama Showground, a match that would charge a sixpence to attend.[1] [2] Kiama won their first premiership in August 1925, defeating Kangaroo Valley in a final.[3] In 1930, Kiama merged with Bombo and they won the title that year.[4] As Bombo-Kiama, the club won the title again in 1933.[5] In 1940 the team would be only referred to by Kiama and this team won the first of four consecutive titles in 1945, an achievement which has not been surpassed in the league to this day. Kiama has won 11 Group 7 premierships overall, behind Gerringong (16), Berry and Albion Park (12). Name and emblemThe Kiama Knights were not always known by this moniker. In 1918, when the competition reformed after World War I, the club was known as the Dinkums, before switching to Warriors the following year. In 1923 the club was known as the Starlights.[6] The Kiama Knights emblem is adopted from that of the Newcastle Knights. ColoursThe colours used by the Kiama side are red, black and white, following a similar strip to that of the NSWRL Sydney team, the North Sydney Bears. Home groundThe Kiama Knights have played out of the Kiama Showground since their inception in 1914. At one stage this ground was called "Church Point", due to its geographical location. The showground has undergone a recent development to its grandstand and pavilion in 2009.[7] PlayersCurrent players
