Rugby- SRA steps up promotion of rugby amongst youths

WITH the aim of introducing more youngsters to the game of rugby, the Seychelles Rugby Association through its secretary, Gerard Baker, has made three donations of balls to three different primary schools on Mahe.

Those schools are Beau Vallon, Anse Boileau and Pointe Larue.

It is to be noted that South African Angus Martin, who was on a working visit here last month, visited a number of schools on Mahe to bring the sport closer to the youths and introduce them to the game.
