welcome to the first ever (i believe) blog on women's rugby (exclusively) in uganda (east africa). i'll keep you informed on all the happenings in the 2007 season for schools, club and national team rugby as well as on our women referees. it will be a updated weekly but if there is a lot to post then it will be more often than that.
currently we have 12 school girl teams (8 in northern ugandan and 4 in kampala) actively playing rugby. hopefully we'll see more schools starting up girl's rugby teams this year.
there are 4 club sides: amazons (northern uganda) and thunderbirds, rangers and black panthers (all in kampala).
so far we've had lots of action this year, starting with a pre - season 7's tournament hosted at kyadondo, a trip for lady cranes (uganda women's national side) to tunisia for a 7's tournament, a 7's tournament in kampala for the school girls, and the recently concluded kyadondo 7's.
east african rugby is growing and fast. in 2006, there was a 15aside and 7's tour to Uganda by Brown University (USA). This year we had TDRT Tigers (UK). If there are any teams from whatever part of the world interested in touring Uganda please email the uganda women's rugby association at ugwomensrugby@yahoo.com or myself at ugrugbychiclet@yahoo.co.uk or ugrugbychiclet@gmail.com. i can pass the info on.
