Capras chief executive Peter White said it was exciting to have a number of female leaders and players get on the front foot and back the new team.

“As a women’s rugby league team and one of the first in the division, we’re extremely pleased with such a capable sub-committee to manage the team,” White said.

“Not to mention, this team is an amazing opportunity for sponsors to align themselves publicly with supporting women’s sport and all the associated community benefits.”

Committee leader and former Capras board member and captain Brad Neven said it was great to have talented and motivated people come on board.

“Patrice Brown, Sarah-Joy Pierce, Amanda Ohl and Kristina Hatfield are all accomplished women in their own right with unique skills to lend to the Capras,” Neven said.

“We are appreciative of the input these women are making to ensure the team will be a success. This is a new opportunity for the Capras women to really make their mark.

“So both on and off the field, we want to gather the best women with the best skills to bring to the table.”

The women Capras will be a part of an eight-team, seven-week competition and will join North Queensland Gold Stars as the two newest entries joining the six teams that were a part of the South East Queensland division one competition in the 2019 season.

The first step was to secure sponsors to make the team financially viable and to cover expenses like travel, coaching staff and uniforms.

A range of sponsorship opportunities are open for a limited time with initial sponsors receiving free VIP passes to the February 15 Capras versus Brisbane Broncos game in Rockhampton.

A Capras women’s squad will be trialled in a game against Souths Logan as a curtain-raiser to that game.

“There have been some good candidates for the Capras’ women coaching position and we hope to have it announced within the next week,” White said.

He said a squad of 30 players would be selected once the coach is confirmed, and that stars Chelsea Baker and Tamika Upton “pick themselves”.
