Group 11 was a rugby league competition in the surrounding areas of Dubbo, New South Wales, Australia. The competition is played in four grades, these being First-Grade, Reserve-Grade, Under 19s and Ladies League Tag.
Ahead of the 2022 season, the Group 10 and Group 11 competitions merged to form the Western Premiership.[1]
Current clubs
All four grades of Group 11 Clubs play in the Peter McDonald Premiership alongside Group 10 clubs from the 2023 season. For the 2022 season, Group 11 only officially fielded reserve and women's league tag competitions, although a Group 11 Premier was still crowned in First Grade and Under 18s, with this being the best team in the Group 11 Pool of the Peter McDonald Premiership. This model will be used in all grades from 2023.

Return of Westside
At a Group 11 AGM on Sunday 17 November 2013 the Group approved an application by the Dubbo Westside RLFC to be re-admitted to the competition as a result of a ballot undertaken by stakeholders that returned a resounding 25–11 vote in favour of Westside thus returning the club to the competition after the club folded in 1999. The Rabbitohs won the Group 11 Premiership twice with back to back title wins in 1981 and 1982 and It is expected the Rabbitohs will play their home games at No.1 Oval after the ground's previous rugby league tenants Dubbo CYMS elected to make the move to Apex Oval. The club folded as of 2020.
