The Brisbane Broncos Community Department has formally appointed Brisbane Broncos Sport Business Institute (BBSBI) graduate Bridget Law to the position of Student Support Officer.

The appointment highlights the success of the National Rugby League (NRL) club’s specialised educational pathway, which is designed to develop qualified executive talent for the sports administration and community sectors.

Commenting on her appointment, BBSBI graduate and Broncos Student Support Officer, Law, said: “No two days are ever the same, which makes the role really enjoyable. I love being able to make a positive impact in these young people’s lives and support them to achieve their best.

“It’s incredibly rewarding watching their growth and progress over time.

“The course combined my passion for sport with leadership and management skills, while also offering practical industry experience.

“Once I explored the course details, it genuinely felt like the perfect fit. It was definitely fast-paced and hard work, but it was so worth it.

“The work-integrated learning opportunities gave us real insight into the many different roles behind the scenes of a world-class sporting organisation.

“The role combined my passion for supporting people with my interest in schools and sport, so I was incredibly excited to apply and very fortunate to be successful,” she said.

Community Integration and Multi-Agency Collaboration

In her new capacity within the Broncos Community Department, Law is tasked with managing critical, multi-agency relationships across various grassroots touchpoints. Her operational mandate involves building and sustaining strategic partnerships with secondary students, high school administrative staff, regional indigenous Elders, and the wider Queensland community. The role focuses heavily on delivering structured, long-term support systems engineered to improve student retention and success metrics both inside and outside the classroom environment.

After exploring alternative sectors, including retail, event coordination, and early childhood education, Law completed a dual Diploma of Leadership and Management and a Diploma of Sport (BSB50420/SIS50321). The program was delivered through an educational partnership between the Brisbane Broncos and TAFE Queensland, combining corporate leadership modules with practical sport business management.

Vocational Work-Integrated Learning and Network Acquisition

The driver behind the appointment was the work-integrated learning framework embedded within the BBSBI curriculum. The program provides students with real-time insight into the operational, financial, and promotional mechanisms backing a world-class sporting organisation. This hands-on commercial exposure allowed Law to cultivate a robust industry network and build the practical administrative skills required to transition directly into the club’s corporate employment structure.
