Our annual High School Academy Day was another amazing success, bringing together a group of eager young athletes ready to grow their rugby skills and passion for the game. Hosted by the Assassins, the day featured hands-on skills training, game-play scenarios and coaching from some of the club’s top players and alumni’s—giving students a real look at what rugby can offer beyond high school.

What makes this day even more special is that it’s completely free for all participating athletes, thanks to the generous support of the Assassins Alumni Memorial Golf Tournament. Through this fundraising event, we’re able to cover the costs of turf rental, provide meals for lunch, and gift every participant with some awesome free Assassin merch. It’s our way of ensuring that no student misses out on this opportunity because of financial barriers.

A huge thank you goes out to all our volunteers, coaches and club members who helped bring the day to life, especially our YDO Brendan Kowal, who gives so much to the youth program! To our alumni and tournament supporters who generosity continues to make lasting impact on youth rugby!

We’re proud to help grow the next generation of players—and can’t wait to see many of them out of the pitch wearing Assassin colours in the future!
