Super Rugby is the world's premier provincial Rugby competition which began in 2011. It provides spectators with more games, more local derbies and more finals than ever before, and a great opportunity to get behind your team.
Australian Rugby, along with the Super Rugby State Unions, encourages schools to get behind their Super Rugby team by participating in Super Rugby Week. The week takes place in or around the lead up to each Super Rugby state's opening home games of the new Season (for each state's program timings, see the table below).

This exciting program encourages schools to play modified Rugby games in the lead up to the Super Rugby competition (February – April). Great prizes and giveaways are on offer from the ARU and Super Rugby teams, with local clubs also involved to help your school get kids active and have fun in a safe and enjoyable environment.

Every participating school who signs up and takes part in Super Rugby Week will receive 2 x FREE Gilbert Footballs and 20 x Marker Cones for teaching rugby themed games, as well as a cap and certificate of appreciation for the organising teacher. There are also some great giveaways on offer.
