Cost: $50 Per child or $300 per team

Duration: 8 full playing weeks. (We dont extend the season and seldom cancel a week)

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.
