Bondi Tens National 10's Rugby Championship

Sadly mother nature has intervened and we have made the tough decision to cancel this year's Bondi 10s.

We hope to be back in 2022, rain and COVID free, for some footy and a few beers!

In the meantime, thank you all for your support!

We're locked and loaded for Bondi 10s this Saturday.

We've got a few returning veterans and a couple of newcomers looking to etch their name in rugby folklore.

Check out the draw below and come down for a coupla quiets and some running rugby.

📣🚨 WE'RE BACK FOR 2021 🚨📣

We are pleased to announce we are moving ahead with planning for a COVID-safe 2021 Bondi 10s, with proceeds once again supporting The Kids Cancer Project.

The plan is for a 1-day tournament on Saturday 20 March at Woollahra Oval No.2 & 3, featuring an open grade of 12+ teams as well as the legendary over 35s division.

Please slide into our DMs to register your interest!

Key details:

Date: Saturday 20 March 2021
Location: Woollahra Oval 2&3, Rose Bay, NSW
Cost: $990 per team – this will be fully refunded if the tournament is postponed due to COVID

As usual, we are asking for squads of up to 20 players and there will be a BBQ, bar and entertainment throughout the day (pending COVID).

Following Rugby Australia's decision to postpone all community rugby until May 2nd due to COVID-19, we will be unable to proceed with this year's tournament.

This is disappointing but at the end of the day everyone’s health and welfare is paramount.

We look forward to returning for the next edition of the tournament, whenever that may be!

Making their inaugural Bondi 10s appearance are the Fijian Warriors!

These lads are fresh off making the semi finals at the Macquarie 7s and are no doubt looking to go one better and claim the title at Bondi.

We look forward to seeing them in action!

🚨 Team Profile 🚨

With less than 10 days to go, let's take a look at some of the teams competing in the 2020 Bondi 10s.

For the second year running we are thrilled to welcome a side from across the ditch as The Auckland University Rugby Football Club Debt Collectors line up for their debut appearance at the Bondi 10s.

The University Debt Collectors, also known as the DC’s. are a stalwart of the U85 Auckland Competition. Fast-paced, energetic, electrifying and arousing - this team produces magic every time they set foot on the field. Don’t worry about keeping a copy of the playbook because these guys threw that out ages ago. The boys traveling across are mixture of new and old wanting to get amongst the 85’s competition. Some are well past their expiry date so expect the subs to be rolling constantly.

Key players on the touring party are Guy Slater affectionately known as Piso, who is a staple of the DC’s. Heading into his 35th season with the club, the 57-year-old has no plans for retirement. The DC’s have picked up a new international recruit in Shimon O’Neill. Some say he is the next Fumiaki Tanaka of New Zealand rugby and boy does he look good in a pair of budgy smugglers. He has yet to score a try in his 8 seasons of rugby so you will definitely be seeing him run the nudie during the final. He teams up with the elusive first five Angus Fye who focuses on the important things in rugby (whacks and chip n chases) he is the prodigy of Paul Tito with similar features of the great man. If you want skill, wit and passion for the game, Desmond Larsen paired with someone who has skill and wit will answer your prayers. His history of head knocks due to the number of rhinos done throughout the years means he will be hitting rucks with reckless abandon. Debutant Jack Sherratt is no stranger to Aussie rugby, the back to back Shute shield champion is ready to make an impact. Built like an ogre, you don’t want to enter this mans swamp. At roughly 7 foot and 130kg, expect high intensity and low minutes from the big man.

The Varsity boys are looking forward to trip across ditch and are excited to get stuck in both on and off the field.

⛱🍻 WE'RE BACK FOR 2020 🍻⛱

Bondi 10s is back at Woollahra Oval on Saturday 21 March for the 17th annual charity rugby tens tournament.

The 1 day party in the park will feature BBQs, bars and music throughout the day as over 300 players vie for Sydney’s most sought after trophy.

All proceeds from the day will go to a variety of charities, adding to the $200,000+ the tournament has raised so far.

There are still spots available so if you’re interested in entering a team, slide into our DMs and we will send you further information.

Look forward to sharing the paddock or a tin on the day!

Congratulations to the Varsity Squids from Auckland University Rugby Football Club who have won the 2019 O’Neills Sportswear Australasia Bondi Tens!

The Squids won a thrilling golden point battle over Coogee Wombats 2s to claim victory in the final in their first visit to Sydney.

It was a great day down at Woollahra Oval with all the teams putting in impressive performances and enjoying themselves on and off the field.

Most importantly, this year's event was able to raise much-needed funds to support our charity partner - The Kids' Cancer Project. Thank you very much to CEO Owen Finegan who came down to present the winners with this year's trophies.

We look forward to seeing everyone back in 2020!

The Wollahra Wombats are back for redemption in their second Bondi Tens appearance.

With a few off-season signings, including the in-form Jimmy 'Games' Lott, the Wombats squad is looking stronger than ever.

Coming off the back of some unlucky results, The Wombats are looking to display their dominance and perseverance coming into this Saturday.

The Wombats are excited to be back and are ready to take on any team come Saturday.

See you there 😉

This year we are delighted to be supporting The Kids' Cancer Project as our nominated charity partner.

Get down and show your support for this fantastic cause by contributing to the donation tins that will be scattered around the ground or enjoying some of the food and drink on offer.

Can't wait to see everyone on Saturday!
