RUGBY kit from Monmouth RFC will be winging its way to Africa to help youngsters play the game there after a club donation.

A spokesperson said: “We are proud to support the Rugby Foundation, Friends of Rwandan Rugby.

“Monmouth’s surplus kit, from across all age groups, has been collected and donated to local WRU referees Gary Massetti and Steve Jones who are travelling out to Rwanda in June, as part of a group of other referees and coaches.

“Along with kit collected from other clubs, it will then be shared out with the local schools and rugby clubs in Rwanda.

“The kit has been distributed and the Monmouth RFC logo will be all over Kigali.”
