Rugby Union SA is very proud to be able to participate in the RSL ANZAC Sporting Medal program.
The ANZAC Memorial Match is to be played between the Grand Finalists from the previous season, during the round closest to ANZAC Day as a tribute to those brave men and women who have served our Nation and the ANZAC spirit.
The player voted best on ground will be awarded the Michael von Berg MC OAM– RSL ANZAC Day Medal. On behalf of Rugby Union South Australia, I would like to extend a warm welcome to Michael, who has made an outstanding contribution to Rugby in South Australia across many roles over a number of decades.
I would like to thank the RSL for enabling Rugby Union South Australia this prestigious opportunity and for their continuous support. Also, I would like to thank the Government of South Australia for their donation of a perpetual trophy of the ANZAC Memorial Match.
