RUPA is delighted to announce the extension of its partnership with Buildcorp Group, reinforcing a shared commitment to the personal development of Australia’s professional rugby players.
The extended partnership reflects a shared vision between RUPA and Buildcorp to support rugby players in achieving their full potential whilst becoming better people, players and living better lives.
Buildcorp is the proud sponsor of the Annual Buildcorp Rugby Player Induction Camp, an essential program for incoming professional rugby players to learn about personal development on and off the field. An annual dinner is held at Buildcorp’s premises where new players are given the chance to network with past players and staff to develop meaningful connections.
In this new partnership, RUPA will be working closely with Buildcorp to continue to leverage networking platforms for past and current players to connect with industry leaders, and broaden their professional career options post-rugby.
