The Raiders will embark on a school blitz across Wagga Wagga, the Roosters are giving behind-the-scenes tours of the SFS and Rabbitohs players will venture to the NSW North Coast and the far west of the state as the NRL’s Community Carnival continues across the country today.

 

As the NRL All Stars and Indigenous All Stars continue their build-up towards Saturday’s historic Harvey Norman All Stars match on the Gold Coast, players from the Storm, Bulldogs, Raiders, Knights, Rabbitohs, Roosters, Titans, Cowboys and Sharks will today be visiting schools, hospitals and hosting coaching clinics across NSW, Queensland and Victoria.

 

The combination of the Community Carnival and the Harvey Norman All Stars will connect with every part of the diverse Rugby League community and, importantly, will bring the game’s ‘Eat Well Play Well Stay Well’ message to more than 100,000 young Australians.

 

During this week, players will visit 400 schools in 78 communities stretching from Sydney to Perth, into far north Queensland, New Zealand and throughout rural and regional NSW and Queensland, handing out 6500 footballs, 30,000 posters and 500 Eat Well Play Well Stay well DVDs and classroom resource packs.
