Meet your Senior Coaches
As we gear up for an exciting 2025 season, we’re proud to unveil the talented senior rugby coaching team leading our Men and Women grades. With their experience, vision, training and passion, they’re ready to drive our premier rugby squads forward, fostering growth and unity both on and off the field.
Sunnybank Rugby is always looking for more enthusiastic coaches and volunteers to join our rugby club community in Brisbane. If you’re keen to make a difference in senior rugby and support the next generation of athletes, visit our volunteer page to get involved!
