Introducing our Harvey Norman Australia Club Person of the month for AUGUST 2026 📣

CHLOE HOLMES
 
Chloe is exactly the type of young volunteer that sporting clubs dream of having involved in their community. She has given her time freely, embraced responsibility and demonstrated a level of maturity and commitment well beyond what could reasonably be expected of a Year 12 student.
 
Thank you Chloe for your commitment and dedication to our game.

Thanks to the team at Harvey Norman, each month a Club Person from across the country will be recognised for their outstanding effort and commitment to our game. Each monthly winner will receive a $150 Harvey Norman Voucher and recognition in the Community monthly newsletter and on Play Rugby socials.

Nominate a Club Person for September today! Link in our bio or head to australia.rugby/community/community-spotlight 🏉

August started at full pace, but we wanted to pause and make sure these incredible contributors get the proper recognition they deserve.

Grassroots rugby simply cannot function without the selfless people who give up their own time week in, week out.

From freezing early morning field setups and long hours on the training paddock, managing fixtures and pulling on the referee’s jersey, their dedication keeps our local competitions thriving.

A massive thank you and congratulations to our July Volunteers of the Month:

🏉 Coach of the Month: Tristan Buttenshaw (Wests Rugby Club, ACT Junior Rugby Union, ACT Brumbies U18s)

🏉 Club Person of the Month: Kim Thorsen (Vikings Juniors)

🏉 Match Official of the Month: Clair Greenwood (ACT Rugby Referees Association) — Also nominated the Rugby Australia Match Official of the Month.

To our winners, and to every single volunteer who turns up for their club week after week, we appreciate everything you do.

Please join us in giving these legends some well-deserved love in the comments below! 👇👏

Got a brilliant idea to grow grassroots Rugby? 🌱🏉

Category 2 of the NSW Rugby World Cup Legacy Program, supported by the NSW Government and the Office of Sport, is all about Participation! We are calling on all affiliated NSW Rugby associations and zones to bring their most innovative ideas to the table.

If you want to pilot alternative competition models or create new pathways for under-represented groups, this stream is for you. Funding can go towards staff, marketing, equipment, and education to help you launch initiatives like new girls' competitions, Tri Tag Rugby, or modified weight-based programs.

Let's make the game accessible to absolutely everyone.
