Australian Rugby Sevens Star Joins Gold Coast Titans for 2026 NRLW Season
Australian rugby sevens star Teagan Levi is set to make a significant move in her sporting career by joining the Gold Coast Titans for the 2026 NRLW season. This transition marks an exciting new chapter for Levi, who has been a prominent figure in the world of rugby sevens for the past six years.
Levi will be joining the Titans after completing her commitments with Rugby Australia. Her journey into professional sports began with the Gold Coast Suns in the AFLW, where she gained valuable experience and honed her skills as an athlete. Now, she is looking to take on a new challenge in the world of rugby league.
“I want to test myself and keep growing as a person and a player, and this opportunity allows me to step out of my comfort zone,” Levi shared in a statement from the Titans. “Making the switch to league has always been on my mind. But I wanted to make sure I was able to be all-in and giving 100 per cent to Murph (Titans coach Karyn Murphy) and the rest of my Titans teammates.”
Karyn Murphy, the head coach of the Gold Coast Titans, expressed her excitement about Levi’s arrival. “It’s a huge coup to have Teagan return to her hometown and join us for the 2026 season,” Murphy said. “She’s been on the world stage wearing the green and gold in significant tournaments the past few years, and her big-game experience and exposure to high-performance environments will be valuable for our upcoming campaign. I’m looking forward to working with her in the preseason ahead of round one.”
Levi’s decision to join the Titans comes at an important time for the team. The club finished ninth in the 12-team NRLW premiership last year, and they are looking to build on that performance in the coming season. With Levi’s experience and dedication, the Titans are hoping to strengthen their squad and compete more effectively in the 2026 season.
The 2026 NRLW season is set to begin on July 2, and Levi will have the opportunity to showcase her talents on the field. Her presence in the team is expected to bring a fresh perspective and energy to the squad, as well as inspire her teammates.
Teagan Levi and her sister Maddison are among the highest-profile players in the Australian rugby sevens program. Their success on the international stage has made them role models for aspiring athletes across the country. As Levi transitions to rugby league, she brings with her a wealth of experience and a strong work ethic that will undoubtedly benefit the Titans.
As the 2026 season approaches, fans are eagerly anticipating the impact that Levi will have on the Gold Coast Titans. Her journey from rugby sevens to rugby league is a testament to her versatility and determination as an athlete. With the support of her coach and teammates, Levi is ready to embrace this new challenge and contribute to the success of the Titans in the upcoming season.
