Rachel McCrow and Matthew Arnold Memorial Day

The Queensland Police Rugby League Association will be hosting a charity rugby league Memorial Day on 25 February 2023 to raise funds for the Rachel McCrow and Matthew Arnold Remembrance Fund.

On 12 December 2022, four Queensland Police Officers were ambushed at a property in Wieumbilla, south-west Queensland, while attending a routine missing person inquiry. Tragically two officers suffered fatal injuries.

This charity event brings the community together to pay respect to the fallen officers and to acknowledge the actions displayed by all officers involved in the police action on that day.

The event will incorporate three rugby league games;

1pm – QPSWRL Dream Team v QPSWRL All Stars

2pm – Arthur Beetson Foundation Immortals (retired NRL stars) versus QPS Legends (former greats of the QPSRLA)

3.30pm – QPS Dream Team v QPS All Stars – both teams will consist of officers from the Southern Region and greater Brisbane area including former NRL players and friends of Rachel and Matthew

After the rugby league games, there will be live performances from musicians who have volunteered their time and talent:

5.30pm – Brad Butcher

6.30pm – Brad Cox and Sammy White

7.30pm – Busby Marou

Sporting memorabilia will be auctioned, raffles conducted and cash donations can be made on the day. All proceeds will go to the Rachel McCrow and Matthew Arnold Remembrance Fund.
