GRFU continues to expand interest in rugby

…North Georgetown Secondary students eager to learn

The Guyana Rugby Football Union has gone into overdrive in recruiting as many youths under its Get Into Rugby (GIR) programme.
A team led by GRFU President Ryan Dey, and including Public Relations Officer Godfrey Broomes, Executive member Telroy McAlmont, National Selector and Coach Laurence Adonis, and player D’Arcy Durant, on Thursday visited North Georgetown Secondary for a meeting with 30 students and parents.
Coach Adonis, in his usual theatrical form, enticed the students by explaining the fundamentals of the sport and the voyages made during his extensive playing years.
Following the discussion, many students committed to learning the sport.
Dey affirmed that the GRFU is rebuilding the local brand of rugby, and would work overtime to widen its net to capture all persons interested in rugby.
Persons desirous of participating in rugby are invited to contact the Union’s Public Relations Officer on telephone number 610-5817.
