Cost: $500 per team
Duration: 14th October - 16th December/3rd February - 24th February 2027
ENTRY PROCESS: Our draw system and online payment is fully enabled. School co-ordinators may choose to manually enter the competition and chose their own money collection systems, or they can use the IT functionality above to collect fees.
TEAM ENTRY: We very, very much prefer that "entire" TEAMS enter this Touch competition and specifically from Junior and Intermediate Schools. Teams will need to find their own managers and coaches.
INDIVIDUAL ENTRIES: We do allow individual children (that are not part of a local school) to enter and play as an "individual". We can't guarantee that we will find enough individuals to make a whole team and can offer a full refund if we cannot find a team. Unlike a conventional Rugby season, Silverdale does not find and co-ordinate coaches for these teams.
