So far 12 tag rugby teams (3 not confirmed) and 6 sevens teams (1 not confirmed) have entered….please email into festivalofrugby14@gmail.com to confirm teams or for more details!! All teams wishing to enter are asked to do so as soon as possible so that organising plans etc can be drawn up.
Hail-stones and snow are not impossible in our climate, but no matter what the weather conditions this will be a great day out for all the family and a very very worthy cause. Looking forward to the day very much.
From a fundraising point of view the day itself will undoubtedly raise much needed cash but there are still 24 days in between where donations can be registered on line, so far donations have ranged from £5 right up to amounts at £500+ all adding up to a current total of £22269!!!!
The effort of everyone is gaining a head of steam in the lead up to the Rugby Festival.
All teams are invited to enter a unique day as Mini, Tag or Sevens teams to help raise funds for Fintan Hillyard specialist cancer treatment. This is a one day only event and therefore it represents the best opportunity to hit the fundraising target to purchase the necessary treatment for Fintan. Please consider it and if you can enter a team you will be helping a lot! Visitors and those wishing to support are very very welcome to attend on the day.
The appeal started 2 week ago and already £22269 pounds have been raised and teams have announced their intention to attend the MINI rugby, Sevens & Tag Rugby tournaments being held on the day.
Fintan Hillyard is a rugby player who last year had to leave the field after scoring a try for Belfast Harlequins RFC. He was unfortunately soon diagnosed with cancer and found out recently that the hospital where he is being treated have run out of treatment options. There is however specialist although expensive treatment available in Germany and the entire Belfast Harlequins Sports Club have got together to help raise that money.
We are honoured to be in a position to help publicise this and look forward to covering the day with InTouch SHOTS and Vidz in what promises to be a good fun day of rugby in the format of Minis, Sevens & Tag
