Through this NRL licence, the Dolphins organisation has become the only former BRL club to regain top-flight status after that competition became a second-tier league with the advent of the Brisbane Broncos in 1988.

[3] Throughout the 1960s, a number of famous players came through the ranks of the Dolphins to represent Queensland and Australia, including Trevor Harken and Arthur Beetson.

The Redcliffe club won further premierships in 1994, 1996 and 1997 and has also appeared in 12 Queensland Cup grand finals, making it the most successful team in that competition.

Redcliffe defeated Toowoomba in the 2006 Queensland Cup grand final at Suncorp Stadium under the coaching of Anthony Griffin.
