“MRP is fun and gives me a chance to play what I may never have been able to play before.” George Storie USQ Saints Toowoomba MRP Player 2016 & 2017

Imagine being able to change the lives of more children just like George – girls and boys with learning and perceptual disabilities who are currently feeling isolated from their friends and their community. Your donation, whether large or small, will do just that. At GingerCloud Foundation particularly through the Modified Rugby Program (MRP) Growth of World - First Modified Rugby Program we are driven to achieve this dream every day.

The dream where our children feel safe, where they belong and have a home forever in rugby.

Through the MRP our vision is to celebrate our children’s strengths rather than focus on their challenges and to create opportunities for long term pathways for inclusion.

We need your help and financial support to achieve this and together we will change the lives of our children for generations.

What is the Modified Rugby Program (MRP)?

The MRP is a new  world first, modified form of rugby in which each boy and girl with a learning and perceptual disability has their own PlayerMentor on the field supporting them. Each PlayerMentor is educated about children with learning and perceptual disabilities, mentoring and leadership through the GingerCloud Leadership Program featuring our MRP Ambassadors Nathan Sharpe, Tim Horan AM, Stephen Moore and Andrew Ready.

Why is the MRP so important?

14% of primary school aged children in Australia are challenged by learning and perceptual disabilities (Speech Pathology Australia). Through the MRP, girls and boys experience regular success and grow to understand what they can do rather than what they can’t. The MRP allows them to experience the sheer thrill of playing rugby often for the very first time. The MRP embodies the essence and spirt of rugby, which embraces respect, diversity and inclusion.
