Coffs Harbour Snappers Rugby Club

In Memory

We are fundraising to support families facing childhood cancer

The mighty Snappers of the Coffs Harbour Rugby Club are aiming to raise $10,000 in support of Red Kite, who do so much for families going through the fight against childhood cancers. 

This will be the third consecutive year a handful of players will run a distance over 50km. After a tough loss of one of our own, we wanted to put meaning behind our run. 

The Snappers Club will be running 100km around the Coffs Coast, with a handful to complete the whole 100km, on December 7th 2024. Our aim is to raise $100 per kilometre we run, so any and all support is much appreciated.

Please get behind the red and black of the Snappers as we give back to an organisation that helped one of our own in their time of need. 

Should you wish to join in on any and all kilometres of the run, please get in touch with the club via its social media pages.

KEEP YOUR EYES OUT FOR THE SNAPPERS!

Thursday 5th Dec
2 sleeps now until the Snappers take on the Coffs Coast 100km run for Redkite. Preparations are nearly complete with support crews locking in and many hands coming together to make this run as smooth and comfortable for those participating. 

Your Snappers have been doing the media rounds this week, appearing on radio stations SeaFM, TripleM and ABC along with Channel 7 covering the run (aired on Thursday 5/12 program). If you've heard or seen them give them a big shoutout!

Again a huge thank you to all those that have donated money/goods/services/time/energy to this event, It is a true testament to how special the Snappers and wider community can be. 
On the day of the run please follow along on the Snappers Instagram to see how the runners are tracking and get up to date locations of where they are. And of course if you feel like strapping up the joggers and joining the lads for any section, find us, and come along!

4 Sleeps!

Tuesday 3rd Dec
The big day inches ever closer, with only 4 sleeps now until the mighty Snappers community takes on the 100km run. Donations continue to flood in as the team is mere dollars away from the halfway mark of their fundraising goal, without a footstep on the pavement. This is a true testament to how generous the Coffs rugby and surrounding community can be. To all those that have donated already a gigantic THANK YOU and to those yet to do so, please get behind us as every donation pumps us up to smash out the 100km on the 7th of December.

Once again, if you are interested in running/supporting/donating to the run reach out to the Snappers via social media or drop some dollars on our donation page!

13 DAYS UNTIL THE BIG DANCE

Monday 25th Nov
The juggernaut that is the 100km run for redkite inches ever closer, with only 13 days until the Snappers club laces up the joggers for the 7th of December trot. 
The lads have been hitting the pavement, posting marathon after marathon in preparation for the event. Blisters, sweat and blood have all been part of the prep but confidence is high as the runners rally around each other. 
Donations from the Snappers and broader community have been steadily flowing, with the effort now at $2700 with another $1000 to be added by the club itself. If you have donated already donated thank you so much, and if your interested please contribute to this vital and just cause.  
Remember, if your interested in being apart of the day, whether that be running or support, please reach out via Snappers socials to be involved!

Sydney Tools Fundraiser

Monday 18th Nov
The lads at Sydney tools turning snags and raising funds for the cause. A highly successful day raising over $780 dollars, which with the support of the snappers rugby club will be bumped up to $1000. We thank everyone who bought a snag, and will continue to pound the pavement in preparation for the 7th of December.

The training continues

Tuesday 12th Nov
The snappers community have been pounding the pavement, bush tracks and beaches of the Coffs Coast in preparation for the 100km run on the 7th of December. Strava has been a hive of activity as the red and black rack up kilometre after kilometre to calcify the mind and legs for this historic run. Donations have been steady, and support continues to swell as we get closer to the day. If you would like to jump on board as a sponsor, runner or contributor in some way please reach out via social media to the club. Thank you all again for your support of this event as we support an incredible charity in Redkite.
