The number of teams participating in the senior men’s competition has increased to 80 this season, up from 76 last year, which is another terrific step forward for growth of rugby in Western Australia. The U18’s grade has seen the most significant increase with an additional three teams joining the competition.
There will be plenty of exciting rugby under lights this season with Palmyra and Wanneroo embracing Friday and Saturday evening games.
The KWIK Premier Grade is set to be a hard fought contest this year with the pre-season Bankwest Cup showing improvement from a number of sides including UWA who took out the pre-season title.
Last year’s Grand Finalists Nedlands and Cottesloe will go head to head in the opening round at Harvey Field with the Gulls keen to put last year’s loss behind them.
Rugby continues to grow in WA with 17 Bankwest Academy representatives, who all play their club football in Perth, and a further ten Premier Grade club players donning the ocean blue jersey for the Emirates Western Force ‘A’ side during the Super Rugby season.
RugbyWA would like to congratulate all those who have been selected alongside the contracted Emirates Western Force players.
Recruitment for Women’s rugby begins this weekend with training sessions run over the coming three Saturday’s. Find out more information about joining the Women’s rugby competition here.
