THE East New Britain Rugby Football Union (ENBRFU) was given a huge boost by Pacific Industries, with new sets of jerseys for its existing clubs.
The presentation of the uniforms was made on Saturday at the Maltech Oval in Rabaul, when the nine ENBRFU clubs were presented by PI’s General Manager, Greg Farrel.
Farrel said that PI was more than happy to come on board and support rugby union in the province.
“We are proud to step in and assist. By supporting the code through our sponsorship, we hope that we can make everyone a champion,” Farrel addded.
The GoGo Cola makers are no strangers to the sport as they are also the naming right sponsors for Port Moresby based Nova Rugby Football Union club.
Currently, the nine existing clubs that received their new uniforms include Redskins, Cardinals, Rookies, Vikings, Barbarians, Piggies, Harlequins, Royals and the Diggers.
ENBRFU president Tony Namur said that an additional three clubs have also expressed interest in participating in their rugby 7s competition which has already commenced.
Namur thanked Farrel and PI for taking the initiative of supporting the union and its clubs with the necessities.
Namur said that it would also boost the morale of the code in the province as it is slowly picking up interest in the schools through the Pacific in Union rugby for schools program.
Meanwhile, Namur said that the union is preparing its side to take part in this weekend’s National Provincial Championships at the Monier Rugby Park, Port Moresby.
