Members and their guests demonstrated their support for the Foundation by ‘Sharing the Spirit of the Game’ at the 2019 Annual Luncheon, which was sold out for the second year in a row. This event constituted an excellent opportunity to promote good fellowship amongst players of, and persons interested in, the game and to celebrate the support being given to grassroots Rugby by The Rugby Club Foundation.

Members and guests enjoyed the hospitality of Tattersalls Club whilst being entertained by Foundation Director, Adam Freier who led our eminent panel of Al Baxter (Vice President NSWRU), Stirling Mortlock (Foundation Treasurer) and Morgan Turinui (Classic Wallabies GM). All four Classic Wallabies shared anecdotes and insights which were both informative and delightful for the assembled audience.

Members who attended the 74th Annual General Meeting immediately prior to the luncheon were both interested and grateful to hear from some of the financial grant recipients who explained the significant difference which the Foundation’s grants program was making to grassroots Rugby across NSW.
