We believe that rugby has the power to unite, inspire, and help young people reach their full potential. Sharing these transformative powers is what fuels and guides our work every day.

Few people embody this more than our 2019 Gala Honoree Bryan Habana. As a boy, Bryan witnessed one of the most iconic moments in sporting history as Nelson Mandela presented the Webb Ellis Cup to South Africa captain Francois Pienaar – helping unite South Africa and inspire a generation.

“Sitting in that stand as a 13-year-old youngster, to then start dreaming about taking up this beautiful game called rugby, it was a watershed moment in my life.
