Kia ora Rhinos, 

Almost there! Thank you to everyone that has helped us get to this point. We completed our preseason fitness sessions last week and would like to extend a massive thank you to Sam Apu'ula, Kieran Duffy and Dylan Ashton for running that 9-week block for us. We hope that your kids are all feeling much fitter for it. We are also grateful for all our parents that stepped in and held tackle bags and set up and put away equipment for us too.

Season kicks off this weekend and we will have the draw with you via email and on our social feeds over the next few days once WRFU has finalised it. 

We are also excited to kick-start our nursery sessions this week too! Our calendar has been updated to show you when all the sessions will be during the season. 

Rippa and Tackle players, please check calendar below for uniform collection dates this week. There will be 3 opportunities this week to collect your jerseys. Please make sure you are using these timeslots to collect jerseys. Parents/caregivers will need to sign for these jerseys when you collect them to confirm that you understand that if they are not returned at the end of the season, an invoice will be sent for $100 to replace them.  

Coaches, your team bags are also able to be picked up at these uniform collection sessions too. 

Team, please also remember to pay your subs if you haven't yet.

Nursery sub for the season is $30 per player

Rippa and tackle sub for the season is $40 per player
