  • Future of Rugby Union in Australia Submission 1
    I RUPA 29 September 2017 Ms Jeanette Radcliffe Secretary Standing Committee on Community Affairs References Committee By Online Submission RE: INQUIRY INTO THE FUTURE OF RUGBY UNION IN AUSTRALIA Dear Ms Radcliffe Thank you for your letter of 11 September 2017 inviting a written submission from RUPA with respect to the Inquiry into the Future of Rugby Union in Australia by the Senate Standing Committee on Community Affairs References Committee. On behalf of its members, Australia's professional Rugby players, RUPA has in 2017 been particularly vocal in advocating for the retention of all five Australian Super Rugby teams as being in the best interests of Rugby in Australia. Throughout the Australian Rugby Union and SANZAAR's protracted process to reduce the number of Australian teams competing in the Super Rugby competition beyond 2017 from five to four, RUPA has been more prevalent in our media presence and commentary than has been our recent nature. We have expressed our organisational views and those of players' collectively in numerous media articles and interviews this year. Central to our publicly articulated positions has been eight statements which RUPA distributed publicly between February and September of this year which we provide for the purposes of the Inquiry. Each of those statements are attached and in summary their details are: Item , Date · 1: Title of Release · -, - ' I 1 16 February 2017 Players united in support of five Australian Super Rugby teams 2 30 March 201 7 RUPA launch "Stronger as Five" online petition 3 9 April 2017 RUPA responds to Super Rugby restructure 4 17 May 2017 RUPA supports VRU in calling for ARU General Meeting 5 21 June2017 RUPA response post General Meeting 6 5 July 2017 Battle only between the white lines 7 11 August 2017 RUPA response to ARU decision 8 5 September 2017 RUPA response to dismissal of Rugby WA appeal Please feel free to contact me should you wish to discuss the contents of this letter further.

  • Media Statement Date: 15 November 2018
    MEDIA STATEMENT DATE: 15 NOVEMBER 2018 FORREST REVEALS RAPID FUTURE FOR SPORT IN ASIA A revolutionary sports and entertainment concept is set to sweep the Asia Pacific region with Andrew Forrest’s new-look elite-rugby competition receiving a critical tick of approval. The World Rugby Council conditionally sanctioned a bold new sporting brand, Global Rapid Rugby, overnight. The 2019 season would kick-off in late February with teams competing for an AUD$1 million first prize. Once official approval is granted by all participating playing unions, a new era in sports and entertainment will begin. Rapid Rugby details that can now be unveiled include… • Eight teams across the Asia Pacific • 14 rounds, 56 games plus four finals • Up to 20 of the world’s best players as competition marquees • A fast-paced, 70-minute total game time • New and revised laws to increase ball in play time towards 55% • A dynamic, viewer-friendly 90-minute total broadcast product • Exciting stadium entertainment at every game, everywhere Global Rapid Rugby founder Andrew Forrest AO described the World Rugby Council decision as an historic moment for the sport, all sports fans and the Asia Pacific. “It has not been a simple road,” he said while commending World Rugby for supporting his vision in a Social Media video announcing the proposed look and feel of Rapid Rugby in 2019. “I’d like to thank everyone that has been bold and brave enough to support this brand-new competition. Like all sports, rugby needs to evolve. The modern sports public is spoilt for choice and demands easily digestible, fast-paced action.” The potential for rugby to flourish in Asia and for the sport to benefit local communities is central to Rapid Rugby’s mission, according to Forrest.
