At Queensland Rugby Union (QRU), we are proud to stand alongside Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in strengthening relationships, deepening respect, and creating meaningful opportunities across our rugby community.

Our Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) guides our commitment to ensuring Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander players, coaches, referees, volunteers, families, and communities to participate in rugby and thrive at every level of the game.

We recognise the power of sport to bring people together. Through rugby, we aim to support not only participation, but also broader opportunities in education, employment, leadership, and community development.

To build a united and inclusive rugby culture that celebrates the rich histories, traditions, and cultures of First Nations peoples.

We are committed to learning, listening, and working in genuine partnership with communities to ensure rugby continues to be a place where Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples feel respected, represented, and empowered.

Through meaningful engagement, cultural education, and long-term partnerships, QRU strives to contribute to reconciliation in a way that creates lasting, positive change — both on and off the field.

Through collaboration with Indigenous stakeholders, cultural awareness training, and community engagement programs, we aim to promote reconciliation, cultural understanding, and diversity within our organization and beyond. Our RAP serves as a roadmap for building meaningful relationships, acknowledging the histories and cultures of First Nations peoples, and working towards a more equitable and harmonious society. Together with Queensland Rugby Union, we are dedicated to creating positive change and embracing the principles of reconciliation in all aspects of our operations. This also requires the ongoing education and engagement of the Queensland Rugby community, to create inclusive rugby environments for all participants, at all levels of our game, from grassroots to high performance pathways.
