Future Immortal Players

Rugby League’s champions giving back to the game and getting something themselves in return

The ABF Future Immortals Tour events will provide the opportunity for former NRL players to stay engaged in Rugby League post the end of their careers.  Retirement can be hard on players as they step out of the spotlight and transition back into the community. 

This can have a lasting effect both physically and mentally on the NRL “old boys” as they try and adjust their mindset and routine into a different way of life that they are used to. For this reason we’re giving them the chance to give back, whilst giving disadvantaged communities access to their heroes.
