Has your boy or girl enjoyed learning touch #rugby at school?
This term, your child has been having fun learning with their friends playing VIVA 7’s (non-contact) during their school sports lessons. The sessions have been provided by the NSW Rugby Union, Australian Government’s Sporting Schools, and your local club, the Manly #Roos.
Come and play with other local schools at our own Rugby World Cup family day and BBQ!
Friday, 9th December, 4.00-6.30pm, Keirle Park, Manly
400 boys & girls from all of the local schools have been sharing the fun of rugby, and to celebrate the fun, we are hosting a Family Gala Day at Keirle Park:
- VIVA 7’s touch rugby competition for all the boys & girls to play the game they’ve learned at school
- Free sausages sizzling on the BBQ, so no need to prepare dinner for the kids
- BYO or Bar/Canteen facilities open
- Qualified, experienced coaches for fun learning and playing (All coaches registered on the NSW Government Working with Children website.)
- Manly Marlins players assisting with the coaching and (subject to confirmation) some extra special Olympian guests
With our rugby teams going so well at the Olympics – what better time to experience the fun, culture, friendship and passion that the Manly Roos and rugby have to offer!
Don’t forget to pack the sports kit if Friday isn’t usually a sports day!
No cost to school or families!
The coaching program and the Family Gala Day is provided free of charge by The Australian Sports Commission, the NSW Rugby Union and volunteers from the Manly Roos.
