Rugby League Club

See main article: Albury Thunder. The Albury Thunder were originally founded as the Albury Blues in 1934, playing in the Group 13 Rugby League competition, in which they won 8 titles. Then in 1991, Group 13 folded, and they moved to Group 9 and they changed their name to the Albury Southern Rams.

Then in 2004, the club was rebranded as Lavington Panthers, the latter name change occurring because of the Penrith Panthers NRL team buying the Rams (and the Lavington Blues Australian Football Club) and renaming them the 'Lavington Panthers RLFC'.

In 2012, after Penrith Leagues Club sold the Lavington Sports Club, the club rebranded to the 'Albury Thunder' name, to be more inclusive to the whole city of Albury, not just the suburb of Lavington. The Australian Football club was to remain as the Lavington Panthers.
