What is Registration?
At the beginning of each rugby season you will be asked to complete a NZRU Rugby Player Registration Form at your club or school. By completing the registration form you will be registered as a rugby player in New Zealand for that rugby season.
Benefits of Being Registered
Being registered ensures that you are recognised for your efforts and are supported by your local Provincial Rugby Union and the New Zealand Rugby Union.
Registered rugby members are also covered under the New Zealand Rugby Union Personal Accident Insurance
What Happens to Your Information?
The information on your registration form is entered into a secure national rugby membership database managed by your local Provincial Rugby Union. The database is used for rugby administration purposes and your details can only be viewed by your club or school, your local Provincial Rugby Union, and the New Zealand Rugby Union.
Your details may also be used by the sponsors of rugby, unless you identified on your registration form that you do not wish to receive promotional or sponsors material.
The New Zealand Rugby Union and your local Provincial Rugby Union also use the database to analyse player numbers for developing initiatives to further support and strengthen our game.
Signing the Form
You are required to sign your own registration form. If you are under 18 years of age, and it is your first year of playing rugby, then the form needs to be signed by your parents or legal guardians. Please note that coaches or teachers cannot sign the form on your behalf.
These signing requirements are required to comply with the New Zealand Privacy Act.
