A Bachelor of Agricultural Business Management student at Charles Sturt University (CSU) at Orange, Mr Jeremy Cummins, was awarded an Australian National Field Days (ANFD) Rugby Player Scholarship at the recent Field Days. Mr Cummins played in the 2009 ANFD Cup with the Orange Aggies and has been rewarded for his off-field efforts in agriculture. Central West Rugby Union chief executive, Mr Peter Veenstra, said Mr Cummins was an outstanding applicant and a worthy recipient of the inaugural scholarship. Mr Cummins came to CSU at Orange from Port Macquarie, and as well as playing in the ANFD Cup has been involved in cattle judging, has taken on a management role at the CSU Rugby Club, and also manages to fit in a 125 per cent student load so he can complete his degree in less than three years.
