We had a wonderful morning at Shoalhaven Rugby Park hosting participants from The Flagstaff Group for an inclusive and high-energy Sense Rugby trial session. It was incredible to watch each individual get involved, have fun, and experience firsthand the unique benefits of this evidence-based occupational therapy program.
What is Sense Rugby Shoalhaven?
Sense Rugby is a therapy program delivered by occupational therapists that uses rugby-based activities to support people of all abilities in building confidence, emotional regulation, and motor skills. Originally designed for children and young people who struggle to participate in mainstream sports, the program is now also available to adults through NDIS group therapy sessions in Shoalhaven.
Held outdoors in the beautiful open space of Shoalhaven Rugby Park, this session provided a safe and inclusive environment where participants could engage in movement, social interaction, and skill development—all while having a great time.
