Due to uniform and UniSport team deadlines, DUSA are unable to stretch out the due dates.

Team Manager

While at the event, the team will be managed by Deakin student, Leshane Kandegedara. Leshane competed in the event in 2023 and will also be competing in the event in 2025. Once you are confirmed in the team, Aryan will set up a group chat so the team can communicate before the event, share your travel plans, share Ubers, hire cars, etc. Stack Team App will be used by DUSA to communicate to the team at the event.

Uniforms

Uniform kits are collected by students from their Team Manager in the week before travelling to the event. Please note that 2025 will likely be the last year in which you will be able to wear your current playing uniform. DUSA are planning to re-brand the Deakin Dragons in 2026, including a new playing uniform.
