WHY SPONSOR?

“If you want to make a difference in the world, start in your community”

Our Club consists of 2 Senior Rugby Teams, 6 Senior Netball Teams, 9 Junior Rugby Teams, Primary/High School Touch Competitions, a Senior Touch Competition and our Squash section. 

Our coaches and managers across all grades are volunteers.

We have strong ties to the local community, including close relationships with High Schools and Primary Schools and businesses in the area.

Everyone has different financial means in our sporting community. We have been trialling initiatives around subs and playing costs over the last few seasons and the outcome has been that keeping subs low keeps participation high.
