Charity rugby tourney set in Clark
CLARK FREEPORT–An international rugby tournament for a cause is set to open here in September.
The 10th International Invitational Fat Boy Tens Rugby Tournament will open at the Philippine Air Force (PAF) Challenger Field on September 7, 2013.
During the international tournament, some 350 players and accompanying persons from 16 foreign and local teams will compete for charitable causes.
Ronaldo Tiotuico, chief of the Department of Tourism in Central Luzon (DOT 3), said the players, some of them from Hong Kong, are scheduled to mount their Charity Golf Tournament on September 6 at the Mimosa Golf and Country Club.
Tiotuico said the annual event was initiated by the Pot Bellied Pigs of Hong Kong. He said the event is meant to generate some P6 million in donations from well-meaning international company sponsors and charity auctions in order to help assuage the plight of disadvantaged children in Angeles City including the development of the game of rugby in the Philippines while at the same time contribute towards the generation of more visitor arrivals into the country.
During the last three years of gaming, the Pot Bellied Pigs headed by its president, Alun Grassick from Scotland, assisted by Ross Bendix, was able to raise an amount of more than US$50,000 each year for their charitable causes.
Among their beneficiaries include Clark Rugby Club, Philippine Rugby Football Union Development Fund and the Visayas Rugby Football Union.
They also support medical projects like providing medicines and vaccinations for hundreds of children across the country.
The group is continuously soliciting contributions from companies that support the development of the rugby game.
Proceeds go to events like engaging students from various schools in Luzon and Visayas in training clinics – either touch rugby or full contact.
Feeding programs are also held in each clinic. They also sponsor children’s education in Thailand and have sponsored yurts in Mongolia for the Christina Nobel Foundation.
A portion of the proceeds from all-kit sales goes to the club’s designated charities.
DOT-sponsored prize packages such as roundtrip air tickets to Boracay or Davao including “More Fun” eco-bags will be up for grabs during the club’s charity auction.
The event’s main sponsors are Tanner de Witt, DHL and Overgaard and is supported by Holiday Inn-Clark, the Angeles City Government, PAF in Clark, and the DOT, including Angeles City Water District and Mabalacat City Water District. ●Charlene A. Cayabyab
