The formation of the APRLC was agreed at the Rugby League International Federation's annual general meeting in May 2010.[3] The Federation was established with 7 founding full members.[4] The APRLC is based at the New Zealand Rugby League's Auckland headquarters and will focus much of its efforts on developing the sport in the Pacific Islands.[4] Under the new RLIF constitution agreed in 2010, the APRLC may appoint a delegate to the five-person International Federation executive.[3]
In 2011, the Asia-Pacific Rugby League Confederation met in a meeting in Auckland over December 5–6. At the meeting the chairman of the Fiji National Rugby League Peni Musunamasi has been elected as a director to represent the Asia Pacific region on the Rugby League International Federation which has been labelled a "significant milestone for the sport". Amongst many issues that were discussed at the two- day meeting was the application for membership of the federation from India, Philippines, Tahiti, Tokelau and American Samoa that shows the growing popularity of the sport in the region.[5][6]
The Official Asia Pacific Rugby League Confederation Rankings are calculated on each nation’s performance over the current season and are influenced by a nation’s official RLIF ranking.
Influencers of position include:
The result of the match i.e. win, lose or draw
The margin of victory (or defeat)
The relative strength of opposition faced
The date of the match – more recent matches are weighted more heavily
The importance of the match e.g. a World Cup match is given greater weighting than a standalone international.
