2023 Rebels Shield
The Rebels Shield is an exciting interschool midweek rugby competition where both U16 boys and girls' teams from selected schools will compete.
According to Rugby Victoria Game Development Manager Samantha Homewood, the Rebels Shield will give equal opportunity across Victoria to support and grow Rugby in schools. “The Rebels Shield will only further develop our up-and-coming rugby players and provide an opportunity for more regular competitive rugby and better engagement with our clubs,” she said.
“In its first year, we had four schools entering U16 boys' and girls' teams. It’s exciting to be able to provide equal opportunity of exposure and competition for our young rugby players.”
The now five-school competition will compete for the Rebels Shield across 6 weeks.
