Clubs
In 2015, 12 clubs were fielding teams in the New South Wales Cup.
It was announced in 2014 that the longstanding relationship between the Sydney Roosters and the Newtown Jets had come to an end, with the NRL Club deciding to link with the Wyong Roos in the NSW Cup as their feeder club.[1] The Cronulla Sharks decided to pull their own team from the competition opting into taking the Newtown Jets on as their feeder club, forming a new relationship with a 3-year agreement between the clubs.[2]
*: The season the team joined is in the NSW Cup, not any other competition before this.
Ladder
Finals series
For the fourth year in a row, the NSWRL used the finals system previously implemented by the ARL competition from the 1990s and the NRL from 2012 to decide the grand finalists from the top eight finishing teams.
