Ways to donate to the Shammies juniors

Fundraising for our U13s tour of New Zealand in July school holidays 2023.

The u13s tour is a fundamental part of our club ethos and a key aspect to maintaining player commitment to Club rugby throughout their teenage years. It is aimed to foster both community engagement, cultural awareness and also enhancing youth physical and mental well-being. As we have all seen during the COVID19 pandemic, our children have missed much of the lives that we all enjoyed, including playing sport and having fun with their mates. Rugby provides a fun team environment that supports the physical and emotional growth for our kids after a significant disruption to their lives.

An u13s tour is a memory that these players will cherish for years to come and also support the development of lifelong friendships both within the club community and the international teams met on tour.

The donations are collected through the Australian Sports Foundation (ASF) which monitors the activity to ensure its expenditure complies with qualifying expenditure as agreed with the provisions of the Australian Sports Foundation.

2023 will be the 140th season of the Petersham Rugby Union Football Club.

In itself, truly worthy of all of us getting off our Covid and muddied maroon and sky blue backsides and proving our genuine allegiance to our wonderful club, the club that has over so many years, given every one of us, so very much.

Running a competitive Div 1 and Junior club don't come cheap. Quality coaches, systems, physio, player support, colts and womens programs, grounds, insurance, rego..... yarda yarda yarda

 One of the barriers to increasing female participation in Rugby Union is registration fees. On average a female only player will pay $25 per game day while mixed players will pay $14. We will use our fundraising to close this gap and ensure everyone regardless of the competition structure they play.
