2006 URU women's MVP
The URU annual dinner/awards night was finally held on Tuesday this week (24th April) at the Serena hotel, Kampala. It was great to see the gals (and guys) all dressed up in dinner dresses and the like.
Guinness, the new sponsors for Ugandan rugby pledged their support to men's rugby and also committed themselves to women's rugby. Part of the 500 million Uganda shillings sponsorship package from Guinness includes a coach who will pick up from where the legendary South African Chester Williams left off. David Dobela (also South African) is the former U21 men's national team assistant coach and Lady Springboks (South Africa's womens' national team) head coach. He will be involved in developing school and club rugby in Uganda and coaching both the men's and women's 15 aside national teams over a 2 year period.
