The 2024 Paul Bowman Junior Rugby League Challenge is this weekend.
Proserpine will come alive with approximately 4500 players, coaches, helpers and their families over the weekend of 14 and 15 September 2024.
80 teams from all around Queensland will make their way to Proserpine for a lively rugby-filled weekend.
Along with the games, one of the most spectacular sites will be the Sam Faust Memorial Relay, scheduled at midday on Sunday.
Possibly the largest relay in Queensland, with 800 kids involved, 80 kids on the starting line, running across the fields and passing off a footy to the following runners.
The colours of 80 different team uniforms, crowd cheering, the laughter and the excitement make this relay very unique.
Returning this year is the monster raffle with fantastic prizes, including signed football jerseys, boat tours around the Whitsundays, accommodation packages, restaurant vouchers, and spa and beauty treatments, with funds raised to help fund next year's challenge.
Game Day Manager Don McDermid, said that the primary focus of the weekend is participation, sportsmanship, and having fun. Don also said many local kids take on essential roles, including refereeing, lines people, assisting in the office and generally helping, which is terrific for personal development.
Everyone is welcome to attend the Proserpine Junior Sporting Complex and witness these under 9 boys and girls playing junior rugby league while friends and families have fun spectating.
