The HSBC Waratahs are coming to Tamworth!
The HSBC Waratahs will kick off their FxPro Super Rugby 2012 preparations with the Woodleys-Volvo Challenge against Samoa in Tamworth on Friday February 10, 2012.
See all the fast and furious action of the Super Rugby team on Friday 10th February in Wests Tamworth League Club at 7.30pm. Tickets are still available through Wests and Wests Diggers.
The HSBC Waratahs bring with them a Mentoring Program that is supported by Tamworth Regional Council and is designed to enhance and develop the relationship between the HSBC Waratahs and the Tamworth Region.
Said Chris Webb, General Manager Waratahs Rugby, “This program will establish a legacy here in the region and strengthen the already strong relationship between the HSBC Waratahs and the people of Tamworth.“
The mentoring program will be conducted during the 2012 season and will offer four promising local junior (U18) rugby players the chance of a lifetime to receive mentorship and guidance from a number of the HSBC Waratahs most experienced players.
As part of the Program, the players will receive an invitation to visit the HSBC Waratahs twice during the 2012 season including an opportunity to attend a game, and have access to training, technical and coaching sessions.
Said Stephen O’Brien, ARU North West Development Manager “This initiative from the HSBC Waratahs and Tamworth Regional Council is an amazing opportunity for four local youngsters to experience and participate in rugby at the elite level. The knowledge they will gain from this program will be priceless.”
The names of the four junior players selected for the Mentor Program will be announced at the official Woodleys-Volvo Challenge launch to be held on Friday 10th February at 11.30am at Tamworth’s premier function centre - Tamworth Regional Entertainment and Conference Centre.
The Waratahs Luncheon Experience is supported by Woodleys, Volvo and Tamworth Regional Council will be hosted by NBN’s Mike Rabbitt and offers fans an exceptional opportunity meet and listen to senior Waratahs players and staff.
The Luncheon features an auction where guests can bid for HSBC Waratahs memorabilia and will culminate in the auctioning of the ultimate rugby experience: a private box and change room tour at the Sydney Football Stadium for a HSBC Waratahs home game.
