They play in the North East Premier division of the Rugby League Conference.

Following some consultation with the local rugby union side, Jarrovians, Jarrow Junior Vikings became active at the under-12 age group.

Soon after there was enough interest to form an adult section with a number of players coming forward from Westoe RFC and Student Rugby League set-ups in the North East the side were soon training and joined the North East Division of the Rugby League Conference for 2004.

Jarrow won their first silverware in 2009 when they took the North East Division title.

They beat Scottish champions Edinburgh Eagles and made it to the Regional Grand Final but were beaten by Northampton Casuals.
