Rugby Africa Gold and Silver Cup 2019 Matches
Cancelled (15/04)
Part of the statement from Rugby
Africa.
“In
2019, Rugby Africa must organize Olympic Qualifiers for men and women for Tokyo
2020 as well as the first African Qualifier tournament for the 2021 Women’s Rugby
World Cup.
“We regret to inform you that the 2019 Silver Cup and
2019 Gold Cup tournaments are cancelled. Rugby Africa’s EXCO is currently working
in conjunction with World Rugby to suggest other formats of fifteen-a-side
competitions which will be financially viable in 2019 and won’t jeopardize the
future of Rugby Africa’s competitions. At the same time, we are working on a
new Rugby World Cup Qualifier model which needs to be sustainable, inclusive
and attractive. Unions will be consulted in this process with an aim to release
the final fixtures for 2020 in October 2019.
