Lote Tuqiri confirmed for the 2016 tour
The tour to support Tag Rugby Trust “building futures through rugby” provides coaching and organised competitions for grade 5 and 6 school children whilst also assisting local “Young Leaders” develop the necessary coaching skills to continue the programs year round.
Rugby however is really just the vehicle to provide much wider support for schools and local communities in and around Livingstone. And now the newly formed (1st ever) rugby club in Livingstone - The Livingstone Rhinos - hosts a number of adult education classes and a medical clinic.
Our tours each year coach over 400 children, which for most will be the first time they are involved in any form of organised sport. At the end of the week the coaches in conjunction with leaders from each school select teams to compete in a full day tag rugby tournament. After two years we continue to see the success of this program. More than 200 children now regularly turn up to the club house every Saturday morning to play Rugby, It’s a real sight to see.
For the Australian coaches it is a unique opportunity for them to do what they do best and offer a pathway of learning, friendship, teamwork and achievement for the kids through rugby.
