Teddy Nyali, Masisports Head Coach: Rugby, reports back on a rugby event recently held at nearby Generations school:
“Our rugby teams visited Generations school this week. The age groups were U7, U8, U11 and U13. Both U7 and U8 lost their matches, while the U11s and U13s won convincingly.
Results aside, there was a great atmosphere at the event. Ukhanyo Primary had two girls playing in the U8s and two girls in the U13s, while Generations had girls throughout their teams. It was great to see such an interest from female players.
The camaraderie between the players and coaches was also excellent. It shows that when we get together for a common goal we can achieve wonderful things. A famous quote from Nelson Mandela is: “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.” It certainly has the power to unite people in a way that little else does.
Happy Mandela Day!”
