The Colombo Touch Rugby Club achieved a significant milestone in its young but inspiring journey, successfully completing its international tour on 13 May at a tournament hosted by the Lanna Hedgehogs in Chiang Mai, Thailand.
In a historic first for the club, both a Men’s team and a Mixed team were fielded at an international competition marking a defining moment not only for the club but also for the growth of touch rugby in Sri Lanka.
At the start of the year, the club set itself an ambitious goal: to take the entire squad overseas. Despite the challenges of fundraising, logistics, and coordination, the team remained committed to a singular promise – no player would be left behind.
The teams further demonstrated their capabilities on the field with outstanding performances: Men’s team emerged as Cup runner-up while Mixed team secured the Shield title.
