Apr 13, 2013 Sports

 

 

The new Executives of the GRFU met on Tuesday, April 9, 2013 at the Guyana Olympic Association to discuss matters pertaining to Rugby Season 2013.  Several administrative and financial matters were also discussed and a new Organizing Committee was formed.  The Committee will be meeting every week to plan the upcoming local and international matches.
Already, three (3) games have been scheduled:
Firstly, on Saturday (today), April 13, 2013 from 16:00 hours at the National Park Rugby Field, the President XV (Coach T. Henry) will charge against the Vice-President XV (Coach K. Stuart) after which a training squad will be short listed for the NACRA senior men’s 15s Caribbean championships against Barbados on the Saturday, May 18, 2013 in Guyana which they are looking to secure a championship on home soil.
Those short listed will be involved in rugby skills and fitness drills and all players are asked to be on the field at 15:00 hours sharp.
Thirdly, on Saturday, June 1, 2013, NACRA senior men’s 15s Caribbean championships will see Guyana play against Trinidad and Tobago in Trinidad.
The matches are significantly supported by the GRFU, which sees it as a key strategic development opportunity for Rugby in the country.  The scheduled matches will help the Union to take a closer look at the development of the elite players as they look towards Rugby in the future.
All are urged to come out and support the two teams on Saturday (today), April 13, 2013 from 16:00 hours at the National Park Rugby Field as they vie for their selection on the National Squad.
Expect a competitive and exciting match!
