RugbyWA is dedicated to supporting homegrown talent in their progression from local-grassroots rugby to the professional game. RugbyWA's Emerging Players Program allows participants to learn from expert staff and professionals, and engage with their peers from throughout the rugby ecosystem.
The RugbyWA Emerging Players Program was established to enable our players and coaches to reach their true potential as individuals and as teams. The program provides players with greater insight into the behaviours and standards that are required to pursue the dream of playing rugby on a professional level.
