Helping rangatahi and community members build skills, confidence and careers through rugby. Rugby for Life’s E,T&E Programme tackles the barriers young people face by linking rugby clubs & community coordinators with education, training and connections to local employers.
Every club is unique – with its own needs, strengths, and challenges. Working from within your club, RFL Coordinators focus on what matters most to you – from growing junior numbers to building partnerships, running events, and linking with local services.
They’re your on-the-ground support to help grow and strengthen your club. RFL Coordinators don’t replace anyone – they amplify the great work already happening. If you think your club and community could benefit from the RFL Club Coordinator program, get in touch.
Rugby For Life’s Youth Development Programme helps rangatahi grow on and off the field, building confidence, leadership, and life skills through rugby and community. By connecting young people with mentors, learning opportunities, and supportive club environments, we open pathways to brighter futures.
Grounded in trusted relationships and local strengths, the programme empowers young people to stand tall, explore their potential, and become leaders in their whānau and communities.
