Message from the President

I am excited to announce a partnership with Mernda Central College Rugby Academy to grow rugby in the north. We hope to make it easier for parents in the northern suburbs, many of whom are ex-players, to reconnect with the Panthers. Distance from Reservoir has been an obstacle, and we need to make traveling to play rugby easier.

Mernda has been using our fields for academy games in 2024, and next year, we will train at the school once a week during daylight saving and, therefore, connect with students in the academy rugby program. We intend to set up a satellite club in Mernda (most likely on the School’s Field). We hope many academy players will train with us at CH Sullivan Reserve on the other training day. Matches will still be held at Sullivan Reserve on Saturdays and possibly under lights on Friday nights.
