It’s not everyday you see some of the greatest touch footballers come NRL players, referees and coaches all in the same grand final!

Through their signature skills, agility and speed - these are the players to pay key attention to tonight, with their ball passing, side stepping and speed giving them that extra competitive edge. Knowing that key coaches such as Scott Prince, and referees like Tyson Brough keep the game consistent and ever so entertaining....

Made in touch, and now competing for the 2026 crown - who do you think will come sprinting down to the touch line to take the chocolates this year?

10 lucky winners 🎉

Earlier this year, we ran a giveaway where referees had the chance to win 1 of 10 head-to-toe New Balance Referee Kits.

10 lucky referees have scored a $400 New Balance kit upgrade, complete with a fresh referee shirt, shorts, socks, cap, and shoes. All for being registered on MySideline!

We want to send a huge shoutout to our 10 winners who have been looking sharp on the field, and a massive thank you to ALL our referees for their dedication season after season 🙌

🚨 WE’RE HIRING | FITSTOP RURAL VIEW 🚨

Not everyone is built to coach.

We’re not looking for someone who can simply count reps and run a timer.

We’re looking for a coach who can command a room, create energy, build confidence, and help everyday athletes achieve things they never thought possible.

As we step into an exciting new season at Fitstop Rural View, we’re searching for a passionate, confident and driven coach to join our team.

You might be the right fit if you:

✅ Thrive in a high-energy group training environment.
✅ Have experience delivering strength & conditioning or functional fitness sessions.
✅ Can coach movement, not just workouts.
✅ Love building relationships and community.
✅ Bring positive energy at 5am and 5pm.
✅ Hold a minimum Certificate III in Fitness (Certificate IV highly regarded).
✅ Want to be part of something bigger than a gym

At Fitstop, we don’t just coach sessions.
We help people become stronger, healthier, more confident versions of themselves.

If you’re ready to lead from the front, inspire others, and be part of an incredible team culture, we’d love to hear from you.

📧 Send your resume and cover letter to ruralview@fitstop.com
