📣 WE’RE LOOKING FOR A TREASURER & SECRETARY

Mackay District Junior Rugby Union is looking for two people to join our volunteer committee and help support the continued growth of junior rugby across the region.

These are practical, manageable roles, with the committee meeting online once per month.

1. Treasurer - Help oversee our finances, budgeting and basic financial reporting.
2. Secretary - Help coordinate meeting agendas and minutes, correspondence and committee communication.

You don’t need to have a rugby background — we’re simply looking for reliable, community-minded people who would like to contribute and help us build a strong future for junior rugby across Mackay, Whitsunday, Bowen and Moranbah.

If you’re interested, or would just like to find out a little more about either role, send us a message or email [email protected]

Please feel free to share with anyone you think may be a good fit. 🏉

The Academy is aimed at aspiring match officials aged 12 and over, while also welcoming adults who are beginning their refereeing journey.

Through education, mentoring and practical match experience, the Academy will help participants develop confidence and officiating skills, strengthen referee participation across the region, and create a pathway into Mackay Referees and higher-level officiating opportunities.

Participants who complete the program will receive a QRU Junior Referee Academy Certificate. Eligible participants may also be able to count their involvement towards the Skills section of the Duke of Edinburgh’s International Award.

🏉 A New Era for Junior Rugby in the Mackay District

The newly elected Mackay District Junior Rugby Union committee met this week and is excited about the future of our game across the region.

Representatives from Whitsunday, Bowen, Moranbah, Brothers and Slade Point came together with a shared vision: to build a stronger, more connected and more sustainable future for junior rugby.

One of the key developments is the transition to a club-based structure in Mackay. We are pleased to confirm that Brothers, Slade Point and Mackay City will operate as independent junior clubs moving forward. More clubs means more opportunities for children and families to get involved in our great game.

The committee also identified two key strategic priorities for the region:

✅ Referee and Match Official Development
We recognise that referees are critical to the future of the game. Over the coming months we will be investing in referee education, supporting young referees and creating clearer pathways for match officials across the district.

✅ Growing Female Participation
Female rugby continues to be one of the biggest growth opportunities for our sport. We will be working closely with clubs, schools, Queensland Rugby and community partners to create more opportunities for girls to play, develop and stay involved in rugby.

There is a lot of work ahead, but there is also enormous opportunity. The committee looks forward to working with clubs, volunteers, players, parents and supporters to continue growing rugby across Mackay, Bowen, Moranbah and the Whitsundays.
