Rugby in Cebu Continues to Grow

Last Sunday March 18,2012 was the first Touch Rugby Tournament that was held in UC-IMEC Mambaling where more than 200 cadets participated in. There were 19 teams of 10 players each and the tournament used a single elimination format (knock-out or play-off style). Girls from the Cebu Lady Dragons and some guys from the Cebu Dragons Club (who weren't in Manila that weekend for the Manila 10's tournament) were there to serve as referees, touch judges and coaches for the cadets.  
      

One of the projects of VisMin Rugby Football Union is to develop grassroots rugby in Cebu and the Club has been holding a couple of touch rugby clinics in the school for quite sometime now . This tournament is the culmination of this four-month program.

Meanwhile, the twice-a-month Touch Rugby Football Clinic continues at The Sandtrap that afternoon with more and more new faces showing up. 


Good job to the guys and ladies of Cebu Dragons Rugby Club for there endless efforts to promote love for Rugby in Cebu!
