“ “Rugby League and regional Queensland have been strong partners for over a century. I’ve been lucky enough to experience bush footy in many forms first - hand, including Ikin family road trips to junior carnivals, coaching clinics in Quilpie, volunteer meetings in Mount Isa, the Adrian Vowles Cup in Charleville, and QRL Country Round games in Miles and Pittsworth. And once you’ve had the bush footy experience in Queensland you quickly learn how much the game means to people in regional communities. This is why the QRL is committed to supporting the many thousands of volunteers who make bush footy possible, because strong community rugby league clubs help strengthen the communities they represent.” Ben Ikin, CEO of Queensland Rugby League
