The Griffith Regional Sports Centre will also be a hive of activity over the two days, with the Little Athletics Region 4 Championships held. Around 850 athletes made up of 32 clubs will compete from East and Western Riverina, Mid-South Coast and South Coast Highlands. The first two placegetters in each event will progress to State competition.

The Brumbies will face the NSW Waratahs as part of a pre-season double-header and community activities in Griffith thanks to Round Two of the Regional Events Acceleration Fund (REAF).

Duty MLC for Murray, Wes Fang said $223,616 for ACT and Southern NSW Rugby Union would allow the Super Rugby Trial and a match involving the Brumbies women’s team to take place here in Griffith from February 1 to 5.

The Santos Festival of Rugby will return to Narrabri in 2023, with a pre-season trial between the Queensland Reds and New South Wales Waratahs once again the centrepiece of the annual celebration of Rugby.

Held from February 10 to 11, the event will offer a huge amount of top-line Rugby for fans, including elite Sevens, country representative matches and men’s and women’s Super Rugby fixtures.

Queensland Country and New South Wales Country will face off for regional bragging rights to kickstart the action on the Friday night, before the Reds and Waratahs Super W sides take to the field for the first time in the event’s three-year history the following evening.
