ARU - Community Rugby
Community Rugby

Welcome to the June edition of the Community Rugby E-newsletter.

The International Series has started, and members of the Rugby Community in Melbourne have had the chance to meet and train with our Qantas Wallabies. We profile the Deniliquin Drovers in our Club Profile, and also acknowledge Brett Kirchner from Queanbeyan, a Volunteer helping to shape our game.

The On-Line Coaching Centre has been updated, with Steve Dumican as the June Coach of the Month.

As always, we encourage feedback and stories from you.

Yours in Rugby
