The 2019 Canterbury Cup NSW season was the eleventh season of the New South Wales Cup, the top rugby league competition administered by the New South Wales Rugby League. The competition acts as a second-tier league to the ten New South Wales-based National Rugby League clubs, as well the Canberra Raiders and New Zealand Warriors. The Newtown Jets won the premiership and played against Burleigh Bears, who won the 2019 Intrust Super Cup, in the NRL State Championship.
In 2019, 12 clubs fielded teams in the Canterbury Cup. The South Sydney Rabbitohs will enter their own team,[1] and the North Sydney Bears will become the reigning premiers Sydney Roosters' new feeder club.[2]
The Jersey Flegg Cup competition will be run in parallel to the New South Wales Cup.[3]
