JUNIOR LAW REVIEW - HAVE YOUR SAY

REMAINING WEBINARS 📆

🗓 Wednesday 19 August
2:00pm AEST
7:00pm AEST

🗓 Friday 21 August
1:00pm AEST

What will be covered?

• Proposed law changes
• Outcomes from the pilot associations
• What this could mean for junior rugby in 2027
• Safer, more enjoyable rugby better suited to player development

YOUR FEEDBACK MATTERS 📝
Have your say through the official Rugby AU feedback process. Attend a session, hear the information firsthand and consider what the changes could mean for our players, coaches, referees and volunteers. The official feedback period closes at the end of August and we encourage you to reflect on the season and provide thoughtful feedback.

Wow, time flies when you’re having fun!

Yesterday our U12s took to Ann Ashwood Park for their final home game of the season, taking on Orange Emus (Green).

We couldn’t be prouder of this group. The grit, determination and team-first attitude they’ve shown all season has been outstanding. Week after week they’ve continued to grow in confidence, develop their skills, back each other and play some fantastic rugby. Their improvement from Round 1 to now has been incredible to watch, and it’s a real credit to the players, coaches and families who have supported them every step of the way.

One last challenge awaits as our Bulldogs head to Glen Willow Sporting Complex this coming week to take on Mudgee Wombats (Red) in their final game of the season.

Let’s get behind our U12s and cheer them on as they finish what has been a fantastic season. Go Bulldogs!!🐶💙💛
