SPONSORSHIP PACKAGES
Marist Rugby enjoys success on the field, year in and year out thanks to the enthusiastic spirit of co-operation between the School and its Rugby Club.
The Marist Rugby Club was established by the parents in 1992 to oversee and manage the administration aspects of Rugby at the College and to take the burden off the school, given the impressive array of talents and skills that its parents can bring to the table.
The Club's aim is to improve the overall standing of Rugby both within and outside the College, to offer our boys the best Rugby experience that they can have while at school, and to maximise the opportunities for those boys who want to go on to higher honours in Rugby.
Marist Rugby Club is a strong and supportive organisation, run not only by the parents, but also with the input of dedicated and professional College Staff. This is a unique partnership that has endured since its inception.
We have a vibrant Rugby program which strives for excellence and always endeavours to be at the highest level of Australian Schoolboy Rugby. We definitely "punch above our weight" when compared with some of the Rugby "powerhouse schools" in the larger states.
Rugby at Marist College starts at Under 10 level, progressing to Under 18, where the boys are given every opportunity to excel and to represent the school, the ACT and Australian Schools.
Marist Rugby will do all that it can to provide the support to help them on their way. In recent years there have been a number of significant highlights that demonstrate the continuing success of Marist Rugby:
As the journey progresses, we are looking to to build a solid relationship with our sponsors and combine our experiences with yours. We believe that we can bring a large audience to your business and hope to create a long term bond between you as the sponsor and our Marist Rugby community.
We are able to offer Gold, Silver and Bronze packages, as you will see from this page.
Please consider whether your business would benefit from an involvement with the Marist Rugby Club and come with us on our journey of the continued development of the College's Rugby program.
If you have any queries, please do not hesitate to contact Ivan Zafiris on 0417 669 719, John Gates on 0439 715 643, or our Treasurer, John Gillespie on 0419 253 353...... or email us.
