Biography

Country pivot came to Balmain in 1948 and played for NSW but injury ruled him out of the NSW v NZ match, leaving the way open for Easts' Wally O'Connell to commence his representative career. Stephen did not play again that year and retired at Souths the next year following another injury. While he was only to have a brief career in Sydney football, it was in his role as long-serving secretary of the NSWRL that he was to make a lasting mark. In 1967 he succeeded Harold Matthews and following the appointment of John Quayle in 1983, took on the role of Administrative Manager. Stephen passed away in 1988, aged 62, but his memory is perpetuated by the Ken Stephen Award for services to the game and to the community.
