Why this trip matters

A rite of passage

For 22 years, the Noosa Dolphins have sent their Under 15s on their first rugby tour. It's a defining experience that helps transform a team of boys into young men.

For most of the squad, it's their first time travelling without family. Over 12 months, they train, fundraise and grow together as a team before heading to New Zealand to test themselves against Kiwi sides. Players who have toured before describe it as one of the most rewarding and memorable experiences of their rugby journey.

Where the money goes

Why $150,000

Flying and hosting the full squad plus staff across New Zealand for up to ten days is a serious undertaking. The goal covers the whole tour party, start to finish.

Every dollar raised is a dollar a family doesn't have to find on their own, and it keeps the tour open to every boy in the squad, not just the ones who can afford it.
