The PNG Chiefs are set to mark a significant milestone in the club’s history with the unveiling of its official logo at a special ceremony in Port Moresby on October 21.

This event heralds the next chapter for the club as it prepares to enter the NRL in 2028.

Built on the pillars of pride, ambition, and a deep connection to Papua New Guinea’s people, culture, and passion for rugby league, the new logo will serve as a unifying symbol for the nation.

It aims to foster a strong identity for the club both on and off the field as it continues to establish itself as a representative of PNG.

Designed in consultation with local PNG design experts, the logo reflects the spirit of the PNG Chiefs and embodies the values the club stands for. It will become the emblem that carries the club into its bright future.

PNG Chiefs Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Lorna McPherson, emphasized the significance of the upcoming event, describing it as a watershed moment for the club and a proud day for rugby league in Papua New Guinea. 

“For a club that has had many special moments to date and will have many more to come in the future, this will be a remarkable occasion of celebration – not only for the PNG Chiefs but for Papua New Guinea as a whole,” McPherson said. 

“Our logo will give our club a recognizable identity and symbol that our players, staff, sponsors, community and supporters can resonate with and truly call their own.”

“It represents where we have come from as a nation, the values we will stand for as a club, and the future we want to build together for all Papua New Guineans.”

“This is a logo that belongs to the entire PNG Chiefs community. It is a mark of pride for Papua New Guinea and for everyone who has believed in what this club can become, and we are incredibly excited to walk into the next era of the Chiefs in this way.”

The unveiling of the logo will be followed by the launch of the club’s inaugural jersey, which will be revealed and made available for purchase on October 22.

The jersey has been proudly designed by a local artist and team, with careful consideration given to affordability and accessibility for all Papua New Guineans.
