The Bishops Community once again did us proud by all coming together to support VUSA. A fantastic event that raised a staggering R540,000 for the VUSA Rugby and Learning Academy. OD Rugby Internationals once again put up their hands to act as Coach of the the boys teams. Thank you Stuart Abbott, Rob Fleck, Francois Louw, Christian Stewart, JJ Gagiano, Dash Barber, Imad Khan, Cornel Smit, Ollie Kebble, Hal Luscombe and Nick Koster. Thank you also to John Dobson and Christian Stewart for participating in a pre-match interview with Tank Lanning. The event also saw three OD International Centres come together for an interview with Matthew Pearce. It was wonderful to catch up with Imad Khan, who updated Tank Lanning on his incredible year to date. We will share these interviews later for anyone who missed them  For more info and photos of the wonderful weekend, please read VUSA's newsletter by clicking HERE. Thank you so much to EVERYONE involved. A fantastic effort.
