  • NRL Reconciliation Action Plan
    Preston Campb ell, “King of the Kids”, in Pormpuraaw , North Queensland NRL Reconciliation Action Plan Message from the Chief Executive Officers Rugby League is a sport for everyone and from its earliest days it has developed a proud association with Indigenous athletes. George Green is recognised as the first Indigenous rugby league player, beginning his career with Eastern Suburbs in 1909. He would become the first in a line of talented Indigenous athletes that has 2 3 carried on for generations. As League enters its Centenary year there can be no doubting the contribution that has been made by champions such as Arthur Beetson, Eric Simms, Larry Corowa, Steve Renouf, Nathan Blacklock, Mal Meninga and Anthony Mundine to name just a few. Today the likes of Matty Bowen, Johnathan Thurston and Greg Inglis are among the 11% of NRL players who proudly boast Indigenous heritage. A sense of the opportunities created through Rugby League is underlined when one considers that Indigenous Australians account for under 3% of Australia’s wider population. 1 4 This Reconciliation Action Plan is a formal recognition of the support that is extended to Indigenous communities by NRL clubs and players and the various arms of the game . It will be monitored by a newly established Reconciliation Action Plan Management Group and will be publicly reported on an annual basis. As well as providing direct material assistance to Indigenous communities, the game’s peak bodies are working in partnership with Reconciliation Australia to keep this RAP alive and ensure it assists in the wider goal of building understanding and positive relationships 5 6 between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians, in the spirit of reconciliation.

    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.
