Underwater Rugby Australia is a commission of the Australian Underwater Federation (AUF)

The UWRA Commission is the body responsible for all national matters relating to the sport of Underwater Rugby in Australia.

In 2015, Underwater Rugby achieved official recognition as an (amateur) sport in Australia under the auspices of the Australian Sports Commission and our governing body the Australian Underwater Federation (AUF). In conjunction with clubs, we aim to promote, advance, foster and cultivate the game of underwater rugby, and provide access to social and competitive experiences throughout Australia for all people at all levels.
