Manila 10s Rugby, March 23-25 cheers

Two dozen rugby teams and their supporters converge on Manila soon for the 2007 edition of the Manila 10s International Rugby Festival. The combination of serious 10-a-side rugby in a party atmosphere happens over the weekend of March 23-25 at the Nomad Sports Club in suburban Merville Park, Paranaque City.

There is a big pre-tournament lunch organized by the Australian-New Zealand Chamber of Commerce at the Sofitel Philippine Plaza Hotel on the Manila bayside on March 23, preliminary matches on March 24 and the morning of March 25, with the cup, plate and bowl finals on the afternoon of March 25. The in-between social schedule culminates in a closing dinner and party on the Nomads club pitch on the evening of March 25. Entrance to the club for matches is free.

Rugby fever hits Manila

05/26/2007

France will host the 6th edition of the 6th Rugby World Cup on Sept. 7 to Oct. 20, the first time a non-English speaking country will host the event.

Twenty nations from five continents will be competing in 10 French cities where the 1998 Fifa World Cup was also held. These are: Bordeaux, Lens, Lyon, Marseille, Montpellier, Nantes, Paris, Saint-Denis, Saint-Etienne and Toulouse.

The tournament is expected to draw 2.5 million spectators and watched by four billion television viewers.

In Manila, rugby fever kicks off today as French Ambassador Gerard Chesnel leads the festivities at 2 p.m. at the European International School Stadium. Official shirts for the 2007 Rugby World Cup will be presented while demonstration matches of Touch Rugby by students and the women’s national team are also scheduled.

Rendezvouz 2007, a project which aims to gather 80 young rugby players from local schools outside France will also be launched. They will meet up with other athletes in France for two weeks.
