Since the inception of the SP Cup Competition in 1990, the mighty LBC Bombers
have been one of the most consistent and competitive team to participate in the PNGNRL Semi Professional Competition. The Bombers in association with Lae Builders
& Contractors as
their Major Sponsor have been together since 1990 making the partnership the
longest in the games history. The club being franchised in 2005 has a board
that is made up of the Major Sponsor (LBC) plus minor sponsors, supported by the
coaching and the technical staff that manages and runs the club. LBC Bombers
being known for their aggression in defense and speed out wide have produced
some of the big names in PNGRFL representing KUMULS (National team) and also
playing overseas.
Because the club wants to maintain a higher level of standard, players are
recruited all over PNG giving the team a mixed blend of players from the
highlands to the islands. But bulk of the players are recruited from the
local league (Lae Rugby League) thus the clubs taking part in the Lae Rugby
League competition are known as feeder clubs to the LBC Bombers team.
It has been a long dry spell since wining the SP Cup in 1995, loosing the
grand final in 1997 and of course winning SP Shields in 2002 - 2003 . This year is
said to be different with the signing of a new Coach, Boga Tau from
the Panthers Club and a good recruitment of players, We will see a big
difference unlike previous years, the bulk of the team have been retained
and are training really well.
Having the best sponsor (Lae Builders and Contractors) in the country and
the most organized team nothing will stop the LBC Lae Bombers from achieving
their ultimate goal this year, the prestigious SP CUP.
