Twelve lucky rugby youth players will be headed to Canada soon for the chance to play matches in that country. The Turks and Caicos Islands Rugby Football Union (TCIRFU ) named the 12-man U19 squad to tour Canada in August. The U19 squad will spend a week in the Toronto area playing Sevens and 15’s rugby matches against local teams and well as touring the local area to experience some Canadian sightseeing and tourist activities. The TCIRFU is able to send this squad away thanks to the generous funding received from Digicel and The Wine Cellar as well as the numerous local organisations that have funded the TCIRFU’s junior rugby program through social and fundraising activities. The players named for the 2012 Canadian tour are:
The selected players will be training over the summer leading up to the tour to ensure they are in peak physical condition and will also be undergoing further fundraising activities to raise money for expenses.
