Rotaract Clubs

Rotaract is where passion meets purpose. It’s a space for young people to connect, create, and lead — turning ideas into action and friendships into lasting impact. Whether you’re planning local projects, joining international collaborations, or simply growing alongside like-minded peers, Rotaract helps you build skills, confidence, and community.

If RYLA sparked your drive to make a difference, Rotaract is the next step to keep that journey alive — empowering you to learn, lead, and serve together.

Traditional Rotary Clubs

Rotary today is about people of action working together to create positive change — locally and globally. Rotary clubs come in different shapes and sizes, with a range of meeting styles and frequency of gathering.

What unites clubs is meaningful service: projects or events that make a real difference in communities, opportunities to build global connections, and the chance to develop leadership skills while having fun with like-minded people.

If you enjoyed the teamwork, growth, and impact of RYLA, a Rotary club could be your next step to keep that momentum going.

Rotary eClubs

Rotary e-clubs offer the same connection, service, and fellowship as traditional clubs — with the flexibility to meet online. Members gather virtually for weekly meetings, collaborate on service projects, and build friendships across time zones and borders.

Using tools like Zoom, Google Meet, and online discussion boards, e-club members can engage when it suits their schedule — sharing ideas, planning projects, and learning together. Many e-clubs also meet in person for hands-on service or social events, blending the best of both worlds: digital convenience and real-world impact.

Rotary Passport Clubs

Rotary Passport Clubs offer a flexible way to stay involved in Rotary while making service fit your lifestyle. Instead of meeting weekly, members connect in person just a few times a year and focus their energy on meaningful action — volunteering, supporting community projects, or partnering with other clubs.

Passport members are encouraged to join in with traditional or e-clubs regularly and commit to at least 40 hours of service each year through hands-on projects, fundraisers, or by supporting local and global causes. It’s Rotary designed for busy people who still want to make a real difference.

Join the RYLA Oceania Alumni Association

The RYLA Oceania Alumni Association is a group of past RYLArians from across Australia and the Pacific who come together to support the independent RYLA Programs and maintain the energy of RYLA Alumni through ongoing professional and personal development, leadership opportunities and an engaged social network, whose skills, knowledge and motivation can be channelled to create significant positive change in the world.

The group is still in its infancy but will work to provide further Professional Development and networking opportunities for RYLA alumni.

Participate in RYLA Oceania

RYLA Oceania exists to develop a network of engaged, educated, and empowered leaders who create meaningful change in their communities and beyond. The program brings together RYLA alumni who are ready to take the next step in their leadership journey — deepening their skills, expanding their networks, and turning inspiration into impact.

Through initiatives like ELEVATE, the RYLA Leaders’ Regional Forum, and the RYLA Oceania Awards, participants continue to grow both personally and professionally. Together, we’re connecting changemakers from across Australia, New Zealand, and the Pacific — building a generation of leaders ready to take action.

Become a RYLA supporter

Each year we need supporters to help run the RYLA program. Supporters support the day-to-day operation of the conference and help facilitate a small group of RYLArians.

Supporter expressions of interest are welcome from past RYLArians (from district 9790 and beyond) and Rotarians. In selecting Supporters, the RYLA committee considers past experience with RYLA (with Succession Planning in mind), the number of training hours/sessions you attend, demographics of the entire Supporter and RYLArian team, and anything else the committee considers relevant.

To submit a supporter expression of interest, see: Supporter EOI
