RYDE Rugby Club’s family and friends travelled to Fiji in the New Year on a goodwill trip – taking on Korovutu Village in a friendly match in sweltering conditions.
All enjoyed the experience and took part in a welcoming ceremony luncheon with the entire community.
Ryde Rugby president Warren Price thanked Brus Beleirara and Tony plus the entire Korovutu Village for organising the match and post-game celebrations for the players and friends. As part of their support Ryde Rugby organised a large amount of football gear that was donated by Eastwood Rugby senior club, Holy Spirit Primary School North Ryde and Ryde Rugby Club.
The Club’s long-term sponsors Frigcorp Building Technologies and CMS Excavation & Demolition are providing additional support by sponsoring Korovuto’s senior rugby team in 2019 to support their friends in Fiji. Thanks to Dave Price and Michael Snell from Frigcorp and CMS for their support of Korovutu Rugby over many years.
