The Sydney Roosters is the only club that has participated in Australia's premier professional rugby league competition in every season since its inception in 1908. Further, the Roosters' women's team was a foundation club when the NRLW commenced in 2018 and has played in each season since. All venues that these teams have played first grade matches on are detailed below, in chronological order. Further, we list those venues where the Roosters have hosted first grade games on, and present a detailed history of the primary home grounds of the Club.
