**DEAL DONE** ✍️🐬🔴⚪

Proud to announce that Mason Lome-Hindle has renegotiated and signed an extension with the Redcliffe Dolphins for 2027. 🔥

What a year of growth for this young man.

After earning his opportunity with the Redcliffe Dolphins, Mason has continued to improve under Head Coach Dave Elliott, becoming a key player in the Redcliffe Dolphins’ 2026 Hostplus Cup QRL side.

From Dunedin, New Zealand, to Queensland — Mason is proving that when talent meets hard work, discipline and the right opportunity, the pathway is real.

🇼🇸 Samoan — Mum’s side
🇳🇿 Māori — Dad’s side

Carrying his whakapapa with fa‘aaloalo, mana and whānau-first values.

Mason started rugby at just five years old, developing through Otago Boys’ High School First XV and representing Otago at all age levels.

His love for rugby league eventually saw him make the switch at 14, and the journey has moved quickly:

🏉 National Nines representative — 2024
🔵 Warriors SG Ball — 2025
🐬 Redcliffe Dolphins — 2026
🔥 Redcliffe Dolphins 2027 — EXTENDED

A huge acknowledgement to Dave Elliott for continuing to back Mason, develop him and give a young player from the South Island a genuine opportunity in the Queensland Cup system.

And to the village behind him — Gemma & James, Freedom & Jimmy, family, cousins, aunties, uncles and siblings — this journey belongs to all of you. ❤️

Mālō le tauivi, Mason. Kei te tīmata noa iho tēnei haerenga.

From Dunedin to Queensland — keep working, keep learning and keep believing.

This is only the beginning. 🐬🔥

💙💛 Resilience Rewarded 💙💛

Congratulations to Tia Matthews on signing a Development Contract with the Parramatta Eels NRLW program.

This is a moment that has been built on determination, resilience, and an unwavering belief in herself.

A proud Toongabbie Tigers junior, Tia has faced challenges that would have seen many walk away from the game. Two serious injuries kept her sidelined for almost two years, but she never lost sight of her dream. She continued to work hard, stayed committed to her rehabilitation, and came back stronger every single time.

Tia is one of the most genuine, kind-hearted, and driven young women you’ll meet. Her coachable attitude, willingness to learn, and relentless work ethic have been a credit to both herself and her dad Joel and coach Ben Ellis whose support throughout her journey has been unwavering.

This opportunity has been earned through perseverance and character. It is a reminder that setbacks don’t define you—it’s how you respond to them that matters.

Tia, we couldn’t be prouder of you. Thank you for allowing us to be part of your journey and for showing everyone what resilience truly looks like. Your story is an inspiration, and we know this is only the beginning.

Onwards and upwards. Congratulations to Tia and the Matthews family—we can’t wait to see what comes next. 👏💙💛

💙💛 Another Rising Star Secures Her Opportunity 💙💛
Congratulations to Taylah Falaniko on signing a Development Contract with the Parramatta Eels NRLW program.
Taylah’s rugby league journey is a great example of what can happen when talent, hard work, and commitment come together. Having only transitioned from netball a short time ago, she has quickly established herself as one of the most exciting young front rowers in the game.
Falling in love with the physicality and contact of rugby league, Taylah has embraced every challenge thrown her way and continues to grow at an impressive rate. Her outstanding Tarsha Gale Cup season saw her emerge as one of the competition’s standout forwards, earning selection in the NSW Under 19s team and capping off the experience with a well-deserved try on the representative stage.
While her performances on the field have been exceptional, we are equally proud of the person she is becoming. Taylah’s attitude, work ethic, and willingness to learn have been key factors in her rapid development and future success.
As another proud Parramatta junior progressing through the club’s development pathway, this contract is a fantastic reward for the effort she and her family have invested into her journey so far.
We are excited to continue supporting Taylah and the entire Falaniko family as they take the next steps towards an NRLW career.
Congratulations Taylah. The future is incredibly bright and we’re proud to be part of your journey. 👏

A special shoutout to Fontayne on making her second NSW U19s appearance after debuting last year. Fa’amalo lava and malo le tauivi — a well-deserved achievement and a testament to your hard work and dedication.

We’re incredibly proud of all three girls and the way they continue to represent themselves, their families and their communities.

The future is bright, and we look forward to watching each of you continue your journey in elite female rugby league. 💙💙

Congratulations to Riley Poulton on signing a multi-year development pathways contract with the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs! 👏🔥

Riley has been part of the Queensland Bulldogs Pups Academy for some time, working hard behind the scenes, developing his game and embracing every opportunity. That commitment has now been rewarded with the Bulldogs securing him for further elite development within their pathways system.

The talented young Queenslander will also proudly represent Queensland once again at the upcoming National Rugby League Schools Championships in Coffs Harbour in just a few weeks’ time. 💪

When asked who he would like to thank, Riley’s response was simple:

“Mum, Dad and Pop. Thank you for everything you’ve done for me and helping make me who I am today.” ❤️

This is a well-deserved opportunity for a young man who continues to put in the work both on and off the field. We look forward to watching Riley continue his development and chase his rugby league dreams in Bulldogs colours.

Congratulations Riley and family! The journey continues. 🔥🐾

Big news for Aaliyah! 💙💛

After an outstanding U19s NSW Tarsha Gale Cup campaign, where she was a standout and consistent performer in helping her team secure back-to-back premiership titles, Aaliyah has signed a development contract with the Parramatta Eels NRLW program.
This achievement is a testament to her dedication, resilience, and hard work. Despite facing setbacks along the way, she never stopped striving to improve and chase her goals. Her commitment to the game has been rewarded with an exciting opportunity at the next level.
We couldn’t be prouder of Aaliyah and her family as they begin this new chapter. Congratulations on this well-deserved milestone, and we can’t wait to see what’s ahead in the NRLW! 👏🏉 HardWorkPaysOf

🇳🇿🖤💛A very special recent visit to Tipene.

What started as a journey helping young athletes navigate elite sporting pathways has become so much more than rugby league contracts and opportunities. This is about people, relationships, culture, friendship, and connection.

As a northern Englishman, being welcomed into a Māori learning environment is something I never take for granted. It is a genuine privilege and one of the most humbling and wholesome experiences I have had through sport.

At Caliber Sports Group, we are already proud to represent some of the outstanding young people and families connected to this environment, but today reinforced that what is being built at Tipene goes far beyond sport. It is creating future leaders in education, culture, community, and elite sport.

A huge thank you to Nathan and Yvette Durie for your vision, leadership, trust, and warm welcome. Your commitment to developing young Māori leaders is inspiring, and it is exciting to see the opportunities being created for students both within Aotearoa and across the globe.

There are so many pathways and opportunities available for talented young people throughout New Zealand and Australia, and I am incredibly grateful that Caliber Sports Group can play a small part in helping students and families navigate that journey.

Ngā mihi nui. Tēnā kōrua. Kia ora rawa atu for the trust, hospitality, and friendship shown to me.

I am genuinely excited about the partnership ahead, but even more excited about the friendships that will continue to grow from it.

The future is bright, and I have no doubt Tipene will continue to educate and develop some of New Zealand’s future leaders both in the classroom and on the sporting field.

Thank you for welcoming me into your whānau. ❤️

🚨 BIG NEWS COMING OUT OF MANLY! 🦅

We are incredibly proud to announce that local junior Oscar Crotty has been extended and upgraded by the Manly Sea Eagles, committing to a multi-year deal as he continues his rise through the club's pathways system.

After attracting interest from a number of NRL clubs, Oscar made it clear where his heart is. A proud Manly junior, his focus has always been on earning his opportunity and pushing towards the ultimate goal – pulling on the Manly Sea Eagles NRL jersey.

As part of this exciting upgrade, Oscar will now spend time developing and training within the NRL environment, another significant step forward in what has already been an outstanding journey.

Oscar's story is a true example of the strength of the Manly development pathway. From attending Allambie Heights Public School, starting his rugby league journey with the Harbord Devils, progressing through the Narraweena Hawks, representing Balgowlah Boys Campus, and now playing junior football with the Forestville Ferrets, Oscar has worked tirelessly every step of the way.

A versatile footballer capable of excelling at fullback or in the centres, Oscar is respected not only for his ability on the field but also for the person he is off it. Humble by nature, always willing to lend a hand around community football, and a genuine student of the game, Oscar is the type of young man every club wants representing its colours.

A massive thank you to Craig Walker and the Manly Sea Eagles pathways staff for recognising Oscar's potential, backing him throughout the process, and their professionalism in securing his future at the club.

To Oscar and the entire Crotty family, thank you for trusting Caliber Sports Group to support and guide this journey. We are incredibly grateful for the opportunity.

This is a special moment for a local junior who has earned every opportunity through hard work, commitment, and character. We can't wait to see what the future holds and look forward to watching Oscar continue his development towards what we all hope will be an NRL debut in the years ahead.

The journey continues, Oscar. We're all behind you. 👏🔥
