Rugby Packaposts are portable posts designed to be pumped up and put out when needed and stored away when not in use. They were originally developed to support the new sport of visually impaired rugby and are also popular for general rugby introductory sessions, social tournaments and as a training aid to simulate real game situations.

These portable rugby posts are available in two different upright types:

1. Blind Rugby Packaposts - (2.5m crossbar) were designed for the sport of visually impaired rugby, which is played on a smaller field than conventional rugby union and requires inflatable posts for safety, and portable posts to set up on the smaller field size.
2. Full-size Rugby Packaposts - (3m crossbar) were developed as a valuable asset for training and simulating real game conditions.

Both versions of the portable rugby posts can be set up in minutes and easily packed away, transported and stored. They provide a convenient way for clubs to overcome the logistical problems of setting up and storing rugby posts in places without existing uprights.

These portable posts are a professionally made, innovative product catching the attention of unions around the world, especially those in developing rugby nations. They help rugby organisers and players to bring the game of rugby anywhere there is a flat surface.

"These posts are fantastic, perfect for what we needed for the day and for future events. Set up and teardown was easy. We spent the last skills session of the day using them to work on dropkicks and kicking off a tee".

- John Guldan, Director and Founder, Rugby UC Events
