UVA Provincial Rugby Union conducts Rugby Development Programs in Badulla

With pandemic hitting hard on all sports , rugby has taken a big blow due to the close contact nature of the sport. Sri Lanka Rugby is focused on keeping the game alive through developmental activities through its World Rugby accredited Get Into Rugby (GIR) program. The aim of the programme is to encourage players of all ages to Try, Play and Stay in Rugby. Get Into Rugby will promote the values of the Game and ensure children are encouraged to try Rugby in a safe and progressive environment filled with fun activities. 
 
Keeping in line with the above vision, UVA Provincial Rugby Union successfully conducted 4 training programs in the Badulla District as follows.
 

• Get into Rugby (GIR) Program at Dharmadutha MV for 60 Male kids on 2nd March 2021
