Welling School in Zambia 2011

On July 8th 2011, 10 Students and 4 Staff from Welling School will head for Zambia to coach some of the most underpriveleged children from government schools and orphanages, on how to play the game of Tag Rugby.

The Students have spent the last year raising money to fund the project themselves. Over £20,000 has been raised so far!

As well as coaching the children in Zambia they will also be training the School Staff and leave enough equipment and resources for the schools to continue playing and enjoying the game. Donations can be made using this 'justgiving' link :

Thursday 14th July - Coaching Day 4

Everything now is focused towards the Tournament on Saturday. The schools (especially the Head Teachers) are becoming very excited as for many of them, it is the highlight of their year. All the Welling Team have been allocated a role ranging from Team Manager to Referee. Rebecca is in charge of organising the Pools and order of events for the whole day.
The coaching sessions were dedicated to finding two teams of ten players from each school.

At the end of the day, the Girls and Boys from Welling and Hurstmere mixed up and made two teams to have a practice Tag Rugby Game to be sure of the rules etc. and to have a bit of fun!
