    Fair point. Each area may have different touch points that are measured. Wamberal mentioned High School Rugby was strong when he played - it has now sadly almost disappeared, so high school rugby could be a touch point. It maybe measured on improvement. It maybe measured on change in market...

    Australian Rugby / RA

    The Premier Clubs get the grant. BUT. Only if there are results. So it is earned. I suggest the ARU pay it, not sure who paid it previously, it maybe sponsorship. With myrugby now in place there is a tool to measure the required. Not all clubs may have the same requirement / target. I'll say...

    Australian Rugby / RA

    I've mentioned this in the What is Grassroots thread, but this thread has captured the topic. Yeah I think all Premier Clubs should receive a grant!!!! If they do the things right. Allot of the above is about growing kids rugby, the numbers playing it, and also the profile of rugby. I...

    What is GRASSROOTS?

    I cant comment because i don't know - so this is definatly I think only. Some clubs could spend no time with junior clubs. Some clubs spend some time with junior clubs, Some clubs could spend lots of time with junior clubs, Some clubs could spend a little at private schools, and school boy...

    What is GRASSROOTS?

    To very similar threads topics running here, I like this point so dragged it across as it assists in explaining my example. The success of this can ow be measured on myrugby, ref my posts above if clubs meet targets a form of grant is paid.

    I'm not sure if there was a till on it recording that expenditure. Or a bundy clock accounting for the time spent on this area.

    What is GRASSROOTS?

    $ensability.00 amount. not $tupid.00 amount. It would have to be a sensible business plan, and each geographic area may have a different approach. Growing the number of kids playing - I'm sure I've read somewhere the ARU also financially benefits through registration (that is called...

    What is GRASSROOTS?

    Interesting. Started this thread in hope of ideas as well. We are all agreeing Grass Roots is Junior rugby. And people have debated about whether Premier Rugby is Grass Roots or not. I agree juniors, I also say all Premier Rugby Comps are as well and will say to bloody right they should...

    What is GRASSROOTS?

    And a bit more given the contribution clubs have made to rugby over the years, often with the smell of an oily rag and allot of volunteers = shit they should get financials up support. Some one said some where so they can piss it up against the wall, i don't think it should be missed that not...

    What is GRASSROOTS?

    I dont think my interest is a secret;) Grow Grass roots. And I support Manly. I am not saying clubs should get cash to support players - I dont agree with that. Instead of NABAuskick it should be BMWwannabeawallaby. Due to personel, branding, and engagement i think the clubs doing it as it...

    What is GRASSROOTS?

    I see grass roots as Saturday Club rugby, and the more bodies playing the better. How to strategically invest in that to see the numbers grow will benefit our game. But it is these Semi-Pro that the kids can follow, I'm not suggesting sponsorship pays them - but what happens if they were paid...

Is it mini's rugby, Is it junior rugby, Is it club rugby, Is it Private High School rugby, Fantastic work picking up a sponsor like BMW, so how could this be best...

    It will be interesting - with Kells, Horwitz, KB (Kurtley Beale) in the back line last year we did all right I thought. Whilst we have had a few step up to higher honours what other ring ins are around this year for you.;)

    Ah the man who cant decide between blue and green. Blue and Green should never be seen unless there is a colour (or a Jimmy) in between.
