Fixtures are listed below as well as important information about the event.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Entry Fee:

Entry to the ground will be $5.00 on Saturday and $10.00 on Sunday. Children, under the age of 16, will be free of charge.

All players participating and support staff listed on your respective team lists will be entitled to free entry on the day of their participation. Unlike previous years, this year we will have the team lists at the gate and players/support staff will be marked off from the team list to gain free entry. To assist in this process it would be appreciated if teams could arrive in groups.

All eskies and bags will be checked prior to entry, and intoxicated people will be refused entry to the ground.

Parking:

Parking will at times be very difficult and we ask for everyone’s patience. A gold coin donation will be collected by members of the Curtin Rugby Club and this money will go directly to Sikoti Tuiletoa.

Buses will need to enter via Stephenson Ave (Challenge Stadium entrance) and drop off near the entrance to the UWA Rugby Club car park. Buses must stay on the road (they are not permitted in the car park) and exit via Brockway Road.

Cars will need to enter from Brockway Road. UWA Rugby Club volunteers will be on hand to direct all cars to allocated parking spots.

Fundraising for Sikoti:

As mentioned the gold coin donation in the car park will be donated. There will be a racing car from Fastlane Racing – fastlaneracing.com.au  at the venue on Sunday, and raffle tickets will be sold with the prize of a drive day on offer. All proceeds will go to Sikoti.

Venue:

The venue will be fenced off and strictly no alcohol will be permitted to enter the ground. Food and alcohol is available for purchase from the UWA Rugby Club..

Gates for non-players will be open an hour before the scheduled start time on both days ie 11:30am Saturday and 10:00am Sunday.

Alcohol:

Alcohol can be purchased from various bars around the ground. As the venue will be enclosed, the entire venue is licensed therefore drinking can occur within the confines of the fenced area. Rugby is a family friendly sport and we ask all clubs to remind their members about drinking responsibly and acting accordingly in front of families.

Intoxicated people will be refused service and security will be on hand to deal with any individuals who choose to act in an anti-social way. Once again, we ask all clubs to be responsible for their members.

Security Guards:

RugbyWA have hired a private security company to ensure that all spectators are able to comfortably enjoy the Grand Final atmosphere. They will be constantly moving through the crowd so if an individual or a group is adversely effecting your enjoyment on the day, please approach the security staff with your concerns.

In respect of all spectators, players and noise restrictions these items will not be allowed into the venue and spectators using these will be asked to leave the venue.

Dogs:

For the comfort of all spectators, dogs and any other pets/animals will not be permitted inside the venue.

Food and Beverage:

The UWA Rugby Club will have various food outlets within the venue selling an array of food, soft drinks, sports drinks, water and coffee.

Toilets:

Extra toilets have been hired. We ask that if you see a problem with these, you immediately inform a RugbyWA representative or a member of the UWA Rugby Club.

Wet Weather:

In the unlikely event of rain, all games will still go ahead. Spectators should note that there is no under cover viewing areas so please bring umbrellas and suitable clothing just in case.

Smoking:

The venue will be smoke free. Those who wish to smoke will be given a pass out and will need to leave the fenced off venue.
