The Northern Region Rugby Association has received training kits from the Technical Director of the Ghana Rugby Football Union Mr. Collin Osbourne.
This was in response to a global plea for help made by the President of the Northern Rugby Association Ms. Rafatu lnusah.
Collin Osbourne raised awareness in the UK and arranged to ship what was donated with the help of Mrs. Anna Mensah wife of Herbert Mensah.
The items donated include both new and old sets of rugby paraphernalia consisting of jerseys, boots, cones, headgear, rugby shirts, and shorts, school shoes, walking shoes, leggings, caps, and ball bags.
President of the Northern Region Rugby Association, Ms. Rafatu Inusah was grateful to Collin Osborne for his commitment to helping the development of rugby in Ghana and also thanked the people who made these sacrifices and reached out.
“We are indeed happy and grateful for this kind gesture as these items are going to help in the promoting and branding of Rugby in schools and communities in the Northern part of Ghana, Tamale and beyond”, she said..
Mr. Collin Osborne has, for the past 5/6 years been the mastermind of the technical vision behind the growth of Rugby in Ghana.
Rafatu confirmed that this is not a one-off donation and that she was hopeful of further donations in the future.
