The New South Wales Residents rugby league team is a representative rugby league team consisting of players who reside in New South Wales, Australia. They play fixtures against Queensland Residents, often as a curtain raiser to a State of Origin game.^[1] They also play against touring sides, and occasionally act as opposition in warm-up fixtures for international sides.

The side features largely players from outside of the first grade, or just on the edges of the NRL as well as players from the lower grades and age-group competitions.^[2]
