EPRUFC are delighted to officially announce England Police Rugby will be travelling to Cape Town, South Africa 8th – 20th May 2024 .
This follows on from our hugely successful tours to :
Hong Kong 2019 – Tri-Nations competition against New Zealand and Australia national police teams along with the British Police women’s rugby team ;
Vancouver 2022 facing high-calibre international players from the British Columbia Premier League
Cape Town will see us play a 2 match test series against the South African Police National Team, in the backyard of the current Rugby World Cup Champions. Surely our ultimate test so far!
With the plans well underway, this tour promises to be the best to date and would not be possible without our fantastic and generous sponsors. Principle Tour sponsor Detego Global Ltd along with Zaun UK, SelectaDNA, SCRAM Systems, Dedrone, Polytint, FUEL10K, Edgar Brothers, Prostate Cancer UK, LTS Design & Build Ltd, Midway Care Group Ltd and Overrock have all provided us with some incredible support and the platform on which to organise what will be an amazing experience and challenge.
During the tour, the players will take part and engage with the local community in South Africa, delivering coaching sessions and distributing rugby kits to those less privileged boys and girls in the townships.
Please take a look at who is making this happen on our sponsors page here.
