About Us

What is Rugby for Heroes?
“Rugby for Heroes” was formed by a group of professional rugby players who wanted to show their support for our servicemen and women, this is a cause that most players & supporters hold in high regard.

Our Mission

  • To raise funds to help those who have suffered traumatic times back into training and finding new careers.
  • Mentoring and inspiring our heroes with players as buddies
  • Support training to help resettle, rehabilitate and motivate back into daily life
  • Amateur rugby community network for local involvement, coaching opportunities, social and community support
  • Summer camps only for military families
  • Raising awareness through public sporting events.

The Vision
The rugby community offers a home and purpose to our returning heroes. Through rugby teams, coaching and community we are a crutch in a time of transition and a helping hand back into daily life.
The distinctive character, spirit and core values of the military and rugby fit together to create a sense of belonging and make the world an easier place.
