Agoal shines bright in Thailand

The young rugby players of Agoal made their presence felt strongly when they performed exceptionally well in the Bangkok Junior International Rugby Tens played on the 21st and 22nd of February 2009 at Bangkok Patana School Stadium, Thailand.

There were as many as 43 youth teams from different parts of the world competed under the youth category of this colorful and well organized tournament which was sponsored by DHL. Though small in stature the kids from Sri Lanka displayed immense talent and skill that won the hearts of many foreign spectators.

Participating for the first time in a tournament of this nature, U12-A team of Agoal showed its metal against heavy Hong Kong University Sandy Bay team in the cup finals and emerged runners-up after a rousing game. Both U12-B and U10 teams which comprised with many talented players became the bowl runners-up in their respective age categories. The U14 team who experienced a vast physical contrast against their opponent right throughout, managed to win the bowl championship.

While it was a unforgettable experience and a confidence booster for the young rugby players, with this exposure Agoal Rugby Academy too was able to unearth and note down some serious talent among its young members which is a positive sign for future Sri Lankan rugby.
