Jersey Presentation
What an incredible experience for our National Champion Open Rugby League team! Recently they had the amazing honour of presenting jerseys to the Australian Kangaroos before their opening game. Our boys even got to mingle with former Reds star Tom Dearden, who made his debut for Australia, and Jessica Elliston, who’s back in action for the Jillaroos! What a night to remember!
