3 Steps to Play
Step 1 - Assemble your team
Rally the troops to get your team together. You will need 7 a side, but make provision for reserves. You can register up to 12 players for an Open team. If you’re looking for help to fill your team, please contact us at touch@wanneroorugby.com.au
Don’t have a team? Fill out the Expression of Interest form for individual players and let us help to find you a team. Then skip to step 3 ‘Player Registration’ below.
Step 2 - Create your team
Before the players can register themselves and pay the registration fee, a team representative will need to register a team name in RugbyXplorer under the appropriate competition.
Step 3 - Register players
Once there is a team, players can now search for their team in RugbyXplorer and register as a player beneath that team. This ensures all players are covered by the club’s insurance.
