‘Pass It Back Cup’ Seeking Girls For Tag Tournament
We are looking for girls aged 14 to 16 to come together to form a number of Tag rugby teams which will participate in a Women’s Rugby World Cup Tag Festival this summer.
The ChildFund ‘Pass It Back’ programme is bringing a group of girls from disadvantaged communities in Vietnam, the Philippines and Laos to take part in the ChildFund Pass It Back Cup on Monday, August 21 at Belfast Harlequins RFC.
The girls will be travelling overseas for the first time and this will be a once in a lifetime opportunity for them. Ulster Rugby is delighted to support this international event as a platform to immerse the girls in the culture of Belfast, but also give them the opportunity to learn more about women’s rugby and the role of females in sport.
