Circular 41/23 RSL NSW Sport & Recreation Program update

The RSL NSW Sport & Recreation Program aims to deliver fun sporting and social events that provide connection for members, their families and the wider veteran community.

This year, 188 events have been organised by sub-Branches across the State, with activities ranging from walks, pilates, ocean swims, and group gym sessions. Other social activities planned include music groups, cooking classes, photography walks, playing card games, and art contests.

If your sub-Branch is already registered in the program, don’t forget to report your completed events every month – it only takes a few minutes. The scoreboards are automated and points are counted for sub-Branches instantly.
