The ACT Brumbies are proud to partner with the Wagga Wagga City Council for the Super 7s rugby tournament on Saturday 4 November at Parramore Park, Wagga.

 

The Super 7s connects our widespread community through an active, inclusive, and competitive environment. On the back of the Brumbies 2023 Wagga and Griffith Roadshows earlier this year, The Super 7s will again boost rugby within the region driving participation and further supporting our local junior rugby clubs.

 

The event, in its third consecutive year, hosts over 650 aspiring young athletes with more than 40 teams in a bid to be crowned ‘Super 7s Champions’. Rugby Australia Program Manager Zac Elliot and former professional athlete Mark Gasnier will host a ‘Tri-Tag-Rugby Come and Try Day’ that will open the Super 7s competition on Saturday, 4th November and continue into the following day.

 

Safeguard Global ACT Brumbies Development Manager Cory Larsen said: “After the success of the 2021 and 2022 Super 7s we are humbled to see the continued growth of this event.

 

“We are welcoming many new and returning teams this year from Orange and Wollongong and are excited to present a new look and feel to the event being held at Parramore Park.

 

“A special thank you to Wagga Wagga City Council in securing the Super 7s competition in Wagga Wagga for the third consecutive year and to all those who will assist in facilitating the day.”

Mayor of the City of Wagga Wagga, Councillor Dallas Tout welcomed the return of the Super 7s for another year, saying: "We appreciate the ACT Brumbies' continuing commitment to bringing these competitions to Wagga Wagga.

"The tournament is expected to draw more than 1500 competitors, officials, families and supporters from across the region and other parts of the state and the ACT.

"This will have major flow-on effects for our local economy and local businesses who are able to capitalise on the influx of visitors to our city.

"It's also a great opportunity for residents of Wagga Wagga and surrounds to enjoy a great weekend of exciting Super 7s rugby, so head on down to Parramore Park to see these talented young athletes in action."
