Murri Vs Koori Challenge Friday 12 February, 2.30–9.15Pm Murri Vs Koori Challenge Friday 12 February, 2.30–9.15pm Easts Carina Leagues Club, Creek Road, Carina More than 4,000 NRL fans are expected to celebrate Murri Rugby League at the 5th Annual NACCHO Deadly Choices Interstate (Murri vs Koori) Challenge this Friday 12 February at Easts Carina Leagues Club. Conducted by the Arthur Beetson Foundation, in collaboration with the National Rugby League (NRL), the Challenge will see the winners of the 2015 Arthur Beetson Murri Rugby League Carnival, the Southern Dingos from South East Queensland, play the 2015 Koori Knockout Champions, the Redfern All Blacks, for the title of National Indigenous Rugby League Champions. Institute for Urban Indigenous Health (IUIH) CEO Adrian Carson said the Challenge plays an important role in engaging Indigenous communities on the importance of taking control of their health. Mr Carson said “The gap in life expectancy between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians can be attributed to preventable chronic disease, with smoking responsible for up to 20% of Indigenous deaths. “Unless our communities are encouraged and supported to stop smoking, to eat healthier food and exercise more we will not close the gap in Indigenous health. This is what the Institute and our partners are aiming to achieve with our Deadly Choices Campaign and program,” Mr Carson said. The event is alcohol, tobacco and sugar free, with the Institute and Aboriginal Medical Services from across Queensland and NSW, delivering a range of health promotion and screening activities at the Challenge. The Deadly Choices Community Day carnival kicks off at 2:30pm with family-friendly activities including traditional games, a jumping castle, rock climbing, big slide, touch football clinic, teacup ride and face painting. Western GuGu Yelangi songman Troy Brady will open the main game with his song ‘Black DNA’ and the 2016 NRL Indigenous All Stars Team will be presented with their jerseys on field by rugby league greats Steve Renouf and Uncle Lionel Morgan, the first Aboriginal to play rugby league for Australia, for Saturday’s All Stars Game at Suncorp Stadium. Supporting matches include the Touch Football Australia’s (TFA) All Stars Touch Game (TFA Indigenous All Stars v TFA Touch All Stars at 3:45pm) and the Gyemore Shield (Brisbane Natives v Cherbourg Hornets at 4:35pm). Ian Lacey, General Manager of Deadly Choices, said the presence of Deadly Choices Ambassadors will be a highlight of the event. “Deadly Choices Ambassadors including Steve Renouf, Sam Thaiday, Jharal Yow Yeh, Scott Prince, Janice Blackman, Rhonda Dahlen and Brad Hore will be at the carnival to promoting the message that ‘A Deadly Choice is a Healthy Choice.’” “So come on down to say hello, play some games, and of course watch some great football.” The Arthur Beetson Foundation proudly presents the 2016 Deadly Choices Interstate Challenge, as part of the NRL Indigenous All Stars Festival of Rugby League, culminating in the NRL All Stars Game at Suncorp Stadium on 13 February 2016. The Interstate Challenge will be broadcast on National Indigenous Television (NITV) on 24 February 2016 at 7:30pm. Entry to the family-friendly drug, alcohol, tobacco and sugar-free event is free.

However, these successes have largely failed to translate into Indigenous health outcomes. Given the continued dominance of a colonial imagination, little research exists that values Indigenous perspectives, knowledges and practice in health promotion. This thesis contributes to addressing this knowledge gap. An ethnographic study of health promotion practice was undertaken within an Indigenous-led health promotion team, to learn how practitioners negotiated tensions of daily practice.

  • Sir Peter Leitch | Newsletter
    THE ACTION KICKS OFF THIS SATURDAY NIGHT Sir Peter Leitch Club Newsletter RLWC 2017 24th October 2017 It’s 4 days until the Kiwis play # their first game of the 2017 RLWC 193 Back The Kiwis By Enjoying Lunch By David Kemeys Former Sunday Star-Times Editor, Former Editor-in-Chief Suburban Newspapers, Long Suffering Warriors Fan E ARE only days from the kick-off of the 2017 Rugby League World Cup, with Australia and England W– in what will be a hell of a match - doing the honours on Friday night. Of course the Kiwis take on Samoa on Saturday night at Mt Smart, and that one should be a good game too. League legend Olsen Filipaina is taking the ball out, which is pretty cool given he has represented the Kiwis and Samoa. The game I am looking forward to is the Kiwis v Tonga in Hamilton, because there is not going to be a lot of love lost when those two sides meet, after everything that has gone on. Before a ball is kicked I have the Kiwis lunch at the Ellerslie Events Centre to look forward to on Friday. When Pete asked if I would take it on with Gordon Gibbons and Tony Feasey, I foolishly said yes, not want- ing to let Pete down. But in truth Gordon has been amazing and we have an incredible line-up of Kiwis greats taking to the stage, and players with a long history of World Cup and test glory in attendance. I have been to several of Peter’s Kiwis lunches and enjoyed every one of them.

  • Brisbane Broncos Proposal
    Submission 003 BRONCOS BRISBANE THE ROLE OF SPORT IN THE WELL.-BEING AND MENTORING OF INDIGENOUSYOUNG PEOPLE 1 Submission 003 1. The Broncos – Committed to Excellence & Understanding The Brisbane Broncos strongly believe that sport and sporting organisations have a significant and very positive impact on the lives of Aboriginal and Torres Strait islander young people. Rugby league has emerged as a key factor in some very positive statistics and research reports into Indigenous well being. Besides the obvious key health benefits gained through the promotion of sport and physical activity in general, it has been noted that there seems to be a sense of collective identity and pride exercised in the ways in which young people engage in rugby league competitions. (Nelson, 2009) It was also noted in Nelson’s 2009 study of Sport, physical activity and urban Indigenous young people that there is an obvious and very significant investment in the cultural artefacts of rugby league, such as football jerseys of their favourite National Rugby League (NRL) Team. It is this ideal that really exemplifies the fact that Rugby League, for many families - particularly indigenous families - is more than just a sport they play, with televised rugby league games described as a site of family togetherness. As one participant of the study explained, ‘we watch it [the Broncos match] every week. We have a little Sunday dinner for it.’ It is these values and beliefs that Indigenous communities hold about Rugby League that make it imperative that clubs such as the Brisbane Broncos run programs such as Learn Earn Legend! in order to improve the wellbeing of Indigenous youth.

    TO: NZRL Staff, Districts and Affiliates and Board FROM: Cushla Dawson DATE: 16 March 2009 RE: Media Summary Tuesday 10 February to Monday 16 March 2009 Bronson Harrison following in Wiki's footsteps: In Canberra Raiders circles there are few compliments bigger than being compared with club legend Ruben Wiki. So as Bronson Harrison prepares to play his first game for the Raiders tomorrow night he can rest assured he has the complete backing of his teammates. Missing World Cup triumph only regret: Everyone from the coaches, Stephen Kearney and Wayne Bennett, and seemingly, through to the kit man have been lauded for their roles in the Kiwis' stunning World Cup win. But one man whose exploits are often overlooked is Roy Asotasi. Asotasi wasn't at Brisbane that famous night when the Kiwis upset Australia 34-20. He still had an arm in a sling, thanks to the torn pectoral muscle sustained in the last 10 minutes of his penultimate NRL game of the season. It dashed any hopes of captaining the Kiwis at the World Cup. Bennett rues letting Harrison slip away: It's not often that Wayne Bennett admits he got it wrong. But that was certainly the case with Bronson Harrison. About the time Bennett signed on to coach the Dragons, Bronson's manager, Sam Ayoub, shopped the Tigers back-rower to several clubs. Bennett was given the opportunity to snap up the 23-year-old but passed. The Kiwi international subsequently signed with the Raiders. Battle looms for Kiwi T'eo: Auckland-born Bronco Ben Te'o is refusing to comment on a possible battle between Queensland and New Zealand for his services.
