I’ll introduce you to influential coaches, players, and mentors who can help elevate your game. Through my network and the guest speakers I bring in—ranging from pro players to elite coaches—you’ll gain insights and connections that can open doors to your next opportunity.

MEET THE FOUNDER & CEO

Hey, I'm Kodie!

Hey, I’m Kodie Hawkins, the founder of Rise Up Rugby. Like many of you, I once dreamed of playing professional rugby. I had the privilege of playing one season of professional rugby and spent the past 12 years playing semi-professional rugby in Australia, New Zealand, and the UK.​

While my playing career was fulfilling, my journey didn’t end there. Over the past few years, I’ve dedicated myself to working with aspiring players, helping many of them achieve their dreams and go on to play professional rugby.

Through the Rise Up Rugby Mentorship Program, I’m committed to providing the guidance, support, and expertise you need to unlock your full potential and turn your rugby dreams into reality.
