LOCAL rugby apparel maker Headhunter Sports and the Singapore Rugby Union (SRU) donated five rugby balls to local rugby teams during a handover ceremony at the Knowledge Hub (KHub) building in Berakas yesterday, highlighting the strong relationship between the two unions.
Lim Hong Huai, the Singapore High Commissioner to Brunei Darussalam, handed over the rugby balls to local rugby teams Sharks, Knights, Vanguard, Panaga Pythons Women’s Rugby Club and the National Brunei Rugby Team.
Yusuf Flynn, founder and CEO of Headhunter Sports, in his welcoming speech hoped the partnership will help promote rugby at local and international levels, including supplying the Brunei National Rugby Team with rugby training kit as well as partnering with the SRU to host selected players from Brunei, Sabah and Sarawak to play against Singapore players to promote sportsmanship between players.
Headhunter Sports recently signed a contract with the SRU and also has been chosen as the official apparel partner for the HSBC Singapore Rugby Sevens 2018, giving the local rugby apparel maker an opportunity to reach to rugby fans worldwide and grow the rugby community.
Headhunter Sports also announced potential sponsorship for the Labuan 10’s Rugby and sponsorship for the National Brunei Rugby Team during the event.
It also reminded that the HSBC Singapore Rugby Sevens will take place in 19 days, and that it is committed to working together with the SRU to make the event a success.
