Downs Rugby has wrapped up a remarkable year to complete all active competitions. Downs Rugby would like to thank all affiliated clubs and schools with their volunteer workforces and executive committees.
We also thank the Darling Downs Rugby Referee Association and Sports First Aid, our sub-committee members and board of directors, led by chairman Rob Johnston.
This year has shown the true unrelenting character of the rugby community to shrug aside the drought, bushfires and pandemic to enjoy our great grassroots game. Thank you Queensland Rugby Union: Gaven Head and David Southwood.
