2nd Chance Charlie returns to Three, kicking off search for rugby stars

Three and 2degrees have teamed up again for the second season of TV series 2nd Chance Charlie, which has been rebooted with six brand new half hour episodes. 

Applications are now open for Kiwi players who have come close to playing top level rugby and believe they deserve a second chance at rugby stardom. 

Up for grabs is a three month personalised training, mentoring and development programme plus $ 15,000 prize money. One player will also be voted the 2degrees People’s Choice and win $ 5,000.

2nd Chance Charlie trainer and former rugby player Joe Naufahu says this could be a game changer for New Zealand players. 

“In the world of professional sport, opportunities are scarce. There are no guarantees when you’re chasing your dreams. If you missed out on your opportunity, what would a second chance mean to you? All the sweat, all the blood, all the tears… were they enough to make you the next 2nd Chance Charlie?”

2degrees General Manager Marketing Ben Wheeler adds: “Last year showed us our hunch was right – there’s a bunch of incredibly talented players out there who, often for a range of reasons, didn’t quite make it. We reckon it’s fair to give them a second chance. Everyone knows someone who dreams of being a rugby star, now’s their chance.”
