FEES & REGISTRATION

2026 FEES

The Gympie Hammers fee structure is set annually by the Club Committee, ensuring it aligns with the club’s needs and resources. We consider the current economic climate when determining total fees, as well as the fee components imposed by regional, state and national rugby, to ensure they remain affordable for all members while supporting the club’s growth and development. Less than 38% of the total registration fee goes to the Club with the majority charged by Sunshine Coast Rugby Union, Queensland Rugby and Rugby Australia to cover a player’s insurance, competition and administration costs.

Player insurance provided by Rugby Australia
