Jindabyne Rugby Union Club

Jindabyne Rugby Union Club, located in the picturesque Snowy Mountains of New South Wales, has been celebrating 40 years of rugby excellence since 1983. The club welcomes players of all levels, whether experienced or beginners, to join their vibrant and inclusive community.

The club offers a variety of teams for different age groups and genders. The juniors division, known as the Piglets, caters to boys and girls aged Under 10s to Under 18s. The women's team, aptly named Miss Piggies, competes in a 10-a-side open-aged competition. The men's team, known as the Bushpigs, participates in the South Coast Monaro Div 2 competition, playing in a traditional 15-a-side format.

Jindabyne Rugby Union Club boasts a rich history and a strong presence in the Snowy River Shire Council. The town itself flourished during the construction of the Snowy Mountains Hydro Electric Authority in the 1950s, attracting people from diverse backgrounds and providing them with a better life. With easy access to both the snow fields and the coast, as well as being within two hours of the capital city Canberra, Jindabyne offers a perfect blend of outdoor activities for all seasons.

Rugby season kicks off in April and runs through August, with pre-season training starting as early as January. The club covers the Monaro region extensively, requiring dedicated travel commitments and often spending long hours on the bus. However, the camaraderie built on these journeys is legendary, with rugby songs becoming second nature by the end of the trip.

For those interested in getting in touch with Jindabyne Rugby Union Club, the grounds are located at J. J. Connors Oval on Park Road, Jindabyne. Any inquiries can be directed to the club secretary via email at secretary@bushpigs.
