The Western Force player allocations for the 2026 Fortescue Men’s Premier Grade season have been confirmed.
Representatives from all 11 Premier Grade clubs attended a session with Force Swyftx Super Rugby Pacific and Force Academy players and RugbyWA staff at Rugby HQ on Monday afternoon.
Force players were registered with aligned clubs, spread across the competition, and got the opportunity to meet officials and staff from relevant clubs too.
The annual player allocation within the Premier Grade highlights the collaborative approach between the governing body and the Force, as both organisations work to maintain their strong community connection and encourage participation at the grassroots level.
Western Force’s Swyftx Super Rugby Pacific season will start on Saturday 14 February at HBF Park against the ACT Brumbies.
RugbyWA’s Fortescue Premier Grade season will kick off later in 2026.
