Listen to our very own Managing Director Megan Elliott on how the MRP encourages and facilitates an inclusive environment. 

Ned Powell joined the MRP Tribe this 2018 season as a PlayerMentor in the Brothers Colts Team. Ned is an inspiring and passionate young man who flourished within the program. This year, GingerCloud's 2nd Fundraising Luncheon, Ned shed light on the power of the bond formed between himself and his PlayerMentor Paddy and he assures us it's one that will last forever. We spoke to Ned to gain a further insight into his experiences with the MRP.

The Chesterman Family have been part of the MRP Tribe since the get-go! And have supported the program with passion, integrity, and love ever since. Anita Chesterman is known among the MRP Community for her beautiful artwork series that capture the heart-warming bonds formed from the program.

We are thrilled to announce that GingerCloud Foundation’s Modified Rugby Program (MRP) was awarded the 2018 Play By The Rules Award on Thursday 11 October in Melbourne by Human Rights Commissioner Megan Mitchell.

Catherine Betcher is not only super mum to PlayerMentor, Charlie, but Brothers Rugby Club Townsville's MRP Coordinator. Catherine, also known as 'Mum' amongst the Townsville PlayerMentors, is a driving force of the program since being hosted this 2018 season.

We spoke to Cath to gain an understanding of how Townsville has benefited as a community from the program.
