Hamilton Rugby is excited to host the 2025 Dads and Lads Tournament at Passmore Oval, with the after-match function in our new Richard Cusick Room. This year, we have teams from Hamilton (x2), Merewether, Maitland, Wanderers, and University joining the fun.
We’re proud of our ongoing partnership with organisers Jockey Wilson and Chris Neader, and grateful for their hard work behind the scenes. Thanks also to the referees who help make this event possible.
The Hawks will field two sides – Gold and Blue – and proudly support Headspace Newcastle as our Mental Health Charity for 2025. We’re committed to raising awareness around mental health and want all players and supporters to know they’re never alone.
A big thank you to our generous sponsors: Jacob Blenkinsop and Hunterlink Newcastle, Graham Crozier and Nova Credit Risk, Frank & Jan Bynon of HIC Services, and the sponsors of our ‘Old Guys Shorts’ program.
Let’s hope the rain stays away for a brilliant day of rugby, mateship, and community spirit. Here’s to making 2025 the best Dads and Lads yet!
