ABOUT US

The Marist Rugby Club was established in 1992 to assist the college in the administration aspects of rugby at the College. The broad aim is to improve the overall standing of rugby within and outside the College.

WHY ARE WE HERE?

To provide an effective support infrastructure for the Marist College rugby program such that students can participate in all aspects of rugby while developing their skills and interest for the game in a safe and enjoyable environment.

Our aim is for Marist College Canberra to be considered a successful and respected rugby school and club and to provide the necessary support and opportunities to every participating student so they can reach their desired goals and maximise their enjoyment.
