Castle Hill RSL Club Support Rouse Hill Rhinos

The Rouse Hill Rhinos Junior Rugby League Club, established in 2007, is celebrating its 18th season with great enthusiasm.

The club has made significant strides over the years, producing a handful of NRL players in the last three years and boasting two Australian Schoolboy representatives this season: Lachlan Coinakis and Tyson Sangalang. Their success is a testament to the club’s dedication to developing young talent and fostering a strong community spirit.

This year, the Rhinos faced a new challenge: increased park hire fees due to their new, larger fields at Samantha Riley Reserve. The fees surged by $11,000, posing a significant financial burden on the club. However, Castle Hill RSL Club stepped in with a generous cash grant, helping the Rhinos absorb these fees.

This support ensures that the club can continue providing essential gear for the kids, such as tackle bags and bump pads, allowing them to develop their skills without the added financial strain.

Castle Hill RSL Club’s support doesn’t stop there. They have also provided free room hire for the Rhinos’ annual trivia night, one of the club’s major fundraising events. This gesture not only helps the club raise much-needed funds but also strengthens the bond between the Rhinos and the community.

Additionally, the Rhinos’ senior teams have been granted access to the RSL Club’s aquatic centre for post-match cool-downs on weekends. This facility is crucial for the players’ recovery and overall performance.

The Rhinos recently celebrated their 14th annual Pink Day, raising around $20,000 for two chosen charities. This event highlights the club’s commitment to giving back to the community and supporting worthy causes. The success of Pink Day is a proud moment for everyone involved and underscores the Rhinos’ dedication to making a positive ipact both on and off the field.

The new home ground and facilities at Samantha Riley Reserve have provided the Rhinos with a much-needed upgrade, enhancing the overall experience for players and supporters alike. The Senior U20s team is also on a remarkable journey, aiming for their third consecutive premiership this season. This level of success is a source of pride for the entire club and reflects the hard work and determination of everyone involved.

The partnership between the Rouse Hill Rhinos and Castle Hill RSL Club exemplifies the power of community support and collaboration. The RSL Club’s assistance has been invaluable in helping the Rhinos overcome financial challenges, ensuring the continued growth and success of the club.

Together, they are fostering a thriving environment for young athletes and making a lasting impact on the community.
