About
5 Players who almost made it big. One 2nd Chance. Super Rugby is calling!
2degrees and THREE are proud to present 2nd Chance Charlie.
Join us as we follow five Kiwi rugby players whose first chance at the professional game didn't exactly go their way.
Whether it was through injury, life changes or simply things out of their control, these players never really got their fair go.
Until now…
These "should've beens, could've beens and almost made its" of NZ rugby will compete over 8 weeks to win themselves the ultimate 2nd Chance; a 12-week development and training programme with their chosen Super Rugby Team, including mentoring and coaching from top Super Rugby staff and a $10,000 cash prize!
Don't miss a minute of the action, with the special 5 minute episodes of 2nd Chance Charlie hitting screens Wednesday, June 17th after The Project on Three, thanks to 2degrees!
May the best Charlie win….
