2025 RISE Rookie CAS Schoolboys Program
Put your best foot forward for under 15's to 18's Junior Reps in 2025
As part of the NRL’s plan to build for the 2025 and future Combined Affiliated States & Territory Team (NT, SA, WA, VIC), we are recruiting Boys players from 15 to 17 years to join the NT Westpac RISE Rookie Offseason Program, which consists of 9 field and gym sessions from November to March 2025.
Upon completion of all 9 sessions, 17's & 18's (turning 18 in 2025) years players will be assessed on their abilities, testing results, commitment and training performance, with up to 7 players being given the opportunity to attend 3 camps and a trial in Melbourne (played before a State of Origin game). This process will be part of the selection model to recruit NT players into the CAS Team, who will then compete in the Australian Secondary Schoolboys U18's Championships in July .....an event which may also be your best and only opportunity to be identified and offered a potential start to a career in the NRL.
For players turning 15 and 16, this will be your opportunity to get exposure to the CAS program, put your best foot forward for 15's and 17's reps in 2025, and start building a framework for attending CAS camps in the near future.
Supported by Australian Government , the RISE Program provides aspirational Junior Rugby League players and coaches with an avenue to obtain specialised training and education through a holistic Rugby League development experience
Training dates will be provided for in due course which may be on a Wednesday or Sunday, with each session taking place at the CDU Gym and Field in Casuarina for 1.5 hours .TBC. Each member of the squad will receive full training apparel free once you have completed 2 sessions, and you will only need to bring shoes, boots a water bottle and towel.
