Asian Community Engagement Trust (ACET)
Sustainable Community
Cultivate environmental awareness in the community through learning how to appreciate, protect and minimise damage to our environment, and guide people how to maintain a mentally and physically healthy life.
Rip Rugby
As the national sport of New Zealand, rugby is deeply engraved in the culture and is often the staple for the community, regardless of any external factors just about any locals has taken part in rugby in some way through their life either as player, referee, coaches or sideline helps. It is truly one of the best ways to be immersed and learn about authentic New Zealand culture.
The Asian community, especially the Chinese community has historically not been able to take advantage of this valuable opportunity and is almost reluctant to try the sport due to assumptions such as strong physical contact and high ratio of non Asian players. Therefore, it is key to attempt to overcome these barriers to ensure Asian people are equally presented within the sport.
This programme mainly focuses on providing a more exclusive environment for Asian people who have little prior knowledge to the sport to have a go under the supervision of specialized coaches, with simplified rules and non contact version of the sport to teach the fundamentals and the spirit of the sport, increasing their fitness and confident in this field.
Date: 19th February - 14th June 2023
Time: Every Wednesday 6pm - 8pm, Every Sunday 10am - 12pm
Venue: Grammar TEC Rugby Football Club
Fee: Free
