Rugby Tours to Swaziland – Tailor Made for your school, university or club
Swaziland – an UNFORGETTABLE experience!
Each tour will be tailor-made for your university, club or school based on the age of your players, the desired duration and what you would like to achieve. We aim to provide an unforgettable experience both for your players and the Swaziland people you will meet.
Our partners in Swaziland are SKRUM – a charity that has introduced Rugby into more than 650 schools already and delivers their own HIV/AIDs education program at the same time. SKRUM is committed to doing something positive about Swaziland’s HIV/AID’s pandemic – some 42% of the population are infected and mass education is needed to avoid the population being completely wiped out!
The game and passion of Rugby has been embraced by the people of Swaziland of all ages, both male and female.
SKRUM has its own rugby coaches and is very experienced at organizing rugby tournaments and coaching sessions. They look forward to welcoming you into their beautiful country and introducing you to their lovely people and stunning sites.
