EVENT POSTPONEMENT UPDATE
(UPDATED 31 JANUARY 2022)
Due to the ongoing impact of COVID-19, it is with great disappointment that we have taken the difficult but necessary decision to postpone the A-Plus Contracting Hunter Valley Mining Charity Rugby League Day that was to be held on Saturday 19 March 2022.

While it is deeply disappointing to have to postpone our flagship fundraising event in the Upper Hunter event for a third time, the Rescue Helicopter Service prides itself on delivering amazing event experiences, and the wellbeing of our supporters, volunteers, staff, and the wider community is paramount. Rescheduling the event for later in the is the most responsible action we can take given the current circumstances.

The new date will be Saturday 17 September 2022, which is an earlier time to our traditional October month due to availability of Pirtek Park, given the upcoming construction works of the new clubhouse and amenities.

The support we have received for this event over the past 7 years has been incredible, and the ongoing support is crucial in helping keep our helicopter crews across Newcastle, Tamworth and Lismore to be ready to respond 24-7.

All player registrations will be simply moved across to the new date, along with all sponsor benefits being delivered up at this time. Those individuals that had pre-purchased entry tickets will have their money refunded via the Sticky Tickets platform within the next 7 days, with ticket sale reopening a closer date to the new event date.

Once again thank you to everyone for your support and understanding, and hope you can all come and join us this September.


Since 2014 the event has raised $412,000​ for the Westpac Rescue Helicopter Service ensuring it is ready to respond 24-7. ​Organised by the Westpac Rescue Helicopter Service - Singleton Volunteer Support Group as an annual fundraising event the ​A-Plus Contracting Hunter Valley Mining Charity Rugby League Knockout Competition has grown to become a premier charity rugby league competition held in the New South Wales, Hunter Valley region. 

The charity competition will bring together over 300 coal mining employees from throughout the Hunter Valley and beyond to represent their respective mine sites. Each team compete in a 10's style competition until one team is crowned champions and presented with the Charity Shield. 



As part of our commitment to the community to ensure the highest health and safety in response to the global Covid-19 pandemic, we will be implementing measures to ensure that the event is Covid Safe.
