NSW/ACT Rams

The NSW/ACT Rams were an under 18 Australian rules football representative club in the TAC Cup.

The team, under the guidance of AFL NSW/ACT represented New South Wales and the Australian Capital Territory and had the moniker of the Ram, partly derived as an acronym from Riverina, ACT, Murrumbidgee and Sydney, the four regions supplying the bulk of the team's squad.

The Rams joined the Cup in 1995 with another non-Victorian club, the Tassie Mariners.

Both left the competition in 2002 when the TAC Cup became a Victorian-focused competition. The Rams now play around 3 or 4 games a year, with players instead playing club football on the remaining weeks of the year.
