🇹🇴Over the past two days, our staff participated in a Safeguarding Policy Review Workshop, engaging in honest discussions about the risks of harm, abuse, and discrimination within our rugby communities. The insights shared, grounded in real-life experiences, culture, and legal considerations, which will help shape a stronger safeguarding framework for the future. We look forward to the draft policy and the next steps in ensuring rugby is a safe and inclusive sport for all.

Thank you to the Australia Government through its PacificAus Sports program for supporting this important journey. “This activity forms part of Australia’s Rugby World Cup legacy program, delivered under World Rugby’s Impact Beyond initiative, with support from the Australian Government through the PacificAus Sports program.”

TRU successfully conducted a 3-day Financial Training for all staff as part of our ongoing staff capacity building initiatives under the DFAT-funded Rise Rugby Project, which aims to strengthen governance and operational systems within organisations.

The training focused on enhancing staff understanding of TRU financial procedures, financial policies, and proposed amendments, while equipping managers and staff with the knowledge and skills necessary to promote accountability, transparency, and effective financial management across the organisation.

The workshop was facilitated by Lead Consultant Mr. Tevita Vaha’i and Ms. Koloisa Tupou of By Faith Consultancy, both respected and well-known professionals in the financial sector in Tonga. Their expertise and guidance provided valuable insights that will contribute to the continued professional development and governance strengthening of Tonga Rugby.

TRU acknowledges the support of Oceania Rugby's Rise Rugby Project and DFAT in making this important training possible as we continue to build stronger systems and capacity for the future of rugby development in Tonga.

The Tonga Police Rugby Team returns to the field not just to play, but to reignite pride, discipline, and camaraderie through rugby.

A powerful reminder that the spirit of the game never fades. Welcome back, officers! 👮🏽‍♂️🔥 🔥
