Summer Series
Overview
The Summer Series competition, previously the Club of Origin, is seen as a step up from the regular Saturday club competitions, an additional playing opportunity that has a more developmental lens that engages college players with their clubs.
Note: ​Grafton is looking to enter multiple teams in both the competitive and development grades.
The grades can have anywhere from 1-3 pools depending on the size and strengths of the teams at the club.
