Get Ya Guards On program returns to the Koori Knockout for its third year

University of Sydney Dental School’s Erin Taylor, a proud descendant of the Gamilaraay people, and around 80 University of Sydney Bachelor of Oral Health and Doctor of Dental Medicine students, along with Sydney Dental School staff, will head to Raymond Terrace this weekend to provide free custom-fitted mouthguards to First Nations rugby league players competing in the Koori Knockout.

Last year, the team fitted more than 500 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander players with free custom mouthguards at the Koori Knockout in Tamworth, get down to King Park Sports Complex this weekend and get yours fitted.

Ms Taylor is leading a research project to look at how custom mouthguards compare to the standard ‘boil and bite’ types, and whether they help reduce head trauma in contact sport. This year there is also a new research component. The team will collect data during the event as part of Ms Taylor’s PhD, which is exploring attitudes, barriers and the effectiveness of mouthguard use in contact sports within First Nations communities.

“Despite being proven to prevent serious head injuries, mouth guards aren’t compulsory at the Knockout,” said Ms Taylor. “We want to understand not just the injuries, but the barriers to wearing them and how to change that.”

The Newcastle Yowies, defending men’s champions, are hosting the 2026 Koori Knockout on Worimi Country in Raymond Terrace, NSW, from Friday 2 – Monday 5, October 2026.

You can watch all the action on SBS’s dedicated Koori Knockout channel:
