Investing in the future of ILLAWARRA JUNIOR RUGBY LEAGUE

Illawarra Rugby League has concluded successful Centenary Celebrations. Now the focus turns to ensuring the District’s Junior Rugby League is supported in the future.

Surplus funds from the centenary campaign will be dedicated to establish a CENTURIONS’ CLUB, to ensure Illawarra remains the “Nursery of Champions”.

A CENTURIONS WALL is being established behind the Centenary Sculpture, located at the northern entrance to the new western grandstand at WIN Stadium, Wollongong. The sculpture and the Centurion Wall will be on permanent public display.
This invitation is extended to . . . INDIVIDUALS, FAMILIES, BUSINESSES (large or small) and PAST PLAYERS to become:

ILLAWARRA JUNIOR RUGBY LEAGUE CENTURIONS for a ONE-OFF CONTRIBUTION of $1,000
*One (1) line is made available for each contribution

This support will assist the on-going future of Junior Rugby League competitions in Illawarra, which in some age groups extends from Helensburgh to Bateman’s Bay.

A University of Wollongong scholarship will be established and awarded annually to a qualified Illawarra Junior League player.

This will be the Colin Purcell Centurion Scholarship.
