Australian Rugby Shield

The Australian Rugby Shield (ARS) is the pinnacle of community representative rugby, exposing talent from all States and Territories with a focus on country and regional areas of Australia. The tournament has built momentum since being reintroduced in Adelaide, and has since been taken to Brisbane (Ballymore), Gold Coast (Caloundra Rugby Club) and in 2025 we're heading to Newcastle!
