Capras Community Care

The Capras Regional Community Program focuses on upskilling, knowledge-sharing, guidance, and support for young men and women throughout Central Queensland.

In partnership with community-focused organisations, our year-round program combines Rugby League with well-being and education initiatives.

Coaches and players from the Capras & NRL deliver a compelling message, aiming not just to create skilled Rugby League players but, more importantly, better individuals committed to reinvesting in their community.

Through strategic partnerships, we conduct various events and programs, including clinics, well-being, and education workshops, and motivational speakers, reaching areas throughout Central Queensland such as Rockhampton, Yeppoon, Gladstone, Calliope, Dawson Valley, Emerald, and Woorabinda.

Encourage a positive school environment through a program designed to address issues during the transition from primary to high school. Utilising the Capras way:

This program is developed in collaboration with industry professionals within the education system.

Tailored to address the unique challenges faced by young people, particularly those of Indigenous heritage.

This includes learning:

• learning the local Darumbal Language
• traditional dance and customs
• the history of artifacts
• flora and fauna of the traditional custodians of the land

To make this program culturally identifiable, we collaborate with Indigenous leaders, role models, and football club players.

The Capras Community Care team engages with businesses in Central Queensland dedicated to creating employment and mentoring opportunities for young people, providing insights into specific industries and conducting on-site tours to guide Indigenous students toward their chosen career paths.

Join the Professionals All Abilities Program, designed to allow individuals of any age and ability to participate in Rugby League-related activities promoting health and well-being.

Run by semi-professional athletes, these programs not only enhance physical fitness but also promote leadership skills applicable to life beyond football.
