Rugby Xplorer

What is Rugby Xplorer?

Created especially for rugby, Rugby Xplorer (RX) is a registration and competition management platform. This digital platform improves the member experience with user friendly and rugby specific functions throughout the season. It’s quick, simple and seamless.

Why Rugby Xplorer?

We want to future proof ALL parts of the rugby delivery system and provide a high-quality user experience for our participants. We can do this by delivering a system that is built specifically for rugby that also supports how our communities connect with rugby.

NZR conducted a full review in 2023 and concluded RX was the best option.

RX has proven experience and a successful track record in implementation across Australia, the Pacific and the USA.

Implementation and Timeframes

The migration to Rugby Xplorer will require a comprehensive implementation plan including training of users to ensure that there is a successful transition from SportsGround. There is always a medium to high degree of risk around IT transformation projects from a change perspective. The optimal time to do this is at the commencement of the registration season which occurs between 1 September and 1 October each year.

Rugby Australia has successfully implemented Rugby Xplorer now in three separate Unions and have proposed a potential implementation plan for NZR.
