The Old Bar Beach Rugby Club was one of the foundation clubs of the Lower Mid North Coast competition in 1981 with Port Macquarie, Taree, Gloucester and Kempsey fielding teams. From 1981 until now, the Clams have won the first grade premiership on six occasions in the years 1982, 1986, 1987, 1992, 2009 and 2011.
The idea of forming an Old Bar Beach Women's rugby team was initially discussed earlier in 2017, but in July the club began in earnest to form a team and placed a post on the club media pages and a team came together. They began training in August 2017 and played in the inaugural Lower Mid North Coast Rugby women's 7's gala day at Taree rugby park in September and played above all expectations, against Taree, Nabiac, Gloucester, Wauchope along with some other girls from Port Macquarie area who helped by being subs. From the Gala day Dani Lewis was asked to trial for the Tomahawks opens side and Destiny Rogers-Wihongi for the u 17's. Destiny was selected in the rep side which played in the state championships in Sydney October 14, 2017. The side committed to the Crescent Heads 7's tournament and the other gala days which were held at Nabiac in December and then at our home ground the Richard Crook Rugby Field in March 2018 a final preparation before the beginning of the season with the first games to be played in April.
The women had a great start by defeating Forster Tuncurry 38-5 which apart from being their first ever win it was also another milestone for the girls as being the first Old Bar rugby team to win on the Richard Crook rugby field and to sing the rarely heard CLAMS war cry. Not long after the men bounced back and caught Wallamba (undefeated until playing the Clams in round 6) off gaurd with a memoble win in adverse conditions to register the first win for the men in several seasons.

It all began with the purchase of a small electronics repair shop in Fairfield in 1957.
Bing Lee and his son Ken Lee transformed their business into a retail store to keep up with the demands of electronic household items such as televisions, washing machines, audio equipment and more.
Their success led to Bing Lee opening more stores around other Sydney suburbs and then further out across New South Wales.
Bing Lee passed in 1987 and Ken Lee filled the role of Chairman till his passing in December of 2007.
A new era began with Lionel Lee stepping into his father’s role when he became CEO in 2008.
Bing Lee is still proudly run as a family business. Second and third generation family members work in the Bing Lee stores, and so is the objective to treat customers, staff and suppliers as part of the family.
Now being a household name around Australia, customers keep coming back because they know they will get honest advice on brands they know and trust, all at low prices.
Bing Lee brings the same honesty and affordability online, at binglee.com.au, so that customers can shop with the convenience and comfort of being at home.
Having virtually every brand name, high-end electronics product and appliance on display, Bing Lee is where to turn for all your home tech needs.
