RUGBY. DELIVERED. – It’s About Passion

WATCH: The RUGBY. DELIVERED. tour might be delivering the passion to fans around the world, but it’s the players who are living it.

“Rugby means everything to us here,” says Patrick, our RUGBY. DELIVERED. match host in Kenmore, Washington (USA). 

How do we know that?

“Forty-eight guys are out there running around in the freezing cold,” he answers.

“Rugby means everything to us here.”

Kenmore, USAThat’s commitment. That’s passion. That’s comradery. Some of the very values the game of Rugby teaches – values that are the same whether you are playing at Twickenham Stadium in London or your local park in Delhi.

Delhi, India“Rugby makes you realize your importance as an individual and the importance that an individual can bring to the group,” says Gaurav, our RUGBY. DELIVERED. match host in Delhi, India. “Having a sport like this will really help [our kids] in growing and helping them in achieving their success.

“For me, rugby is about passion,” says Cristina, our RUGBY. DELIVERED. match host in Italy. We are a big family and we believe in teamwork and clean play. We want to have fun and get to know other players.”

"It’s a part of my life that I can’t live without.”
