Fantastic work being done by our recently appointed Volunteer Rugby Development Officer, Didier, at Mahama Refugee Camp. The camp is home to an estimated 50,000 people and has the largest school in Rwanda, Paysannat L.

Didier is a huge asset to Friends of Rwandan Rugby and we are delighted to see the enjoyment written large on the faces of the children taking part in the sessions.

And so it starts … a day at the lock up packing rugby equipment for the annual tour. We have some fabulous stuff to take out this year. Our only way of taking kit out is to use the baggage allowance for our volunteers - 2x23kg per person so if anyone would like to join us on this year’s tour I would appreciate it!
Would really love to get all of this out to Rwanda this year!
Custom balls, tag belts, coaches bags and bibs -fantastic stuff!

Dean, a friend of Friends of Rwandan Rugby, is doing an amazing virtual bike ride where he is attempting to 'climb' Rwanda's highest mountain, Mount Karisimbi which is 4507 Metres. If you have a couple of quid you can part with please donate to his GoFundMe page https://www.gofundme.com/f/cycling-the-height-of-mount-karisimbi-4507-metres
