FoRR focuses on teaching rugby to children and young adults in over 100 schools and communities across Rwanda. Our Rwandan rugby development officers (RDOs) are developing the sport at grass-roots level ensuring sustainable rugby development for the future.

It is increasingly accepted that sport can play a big role in healing the personal and societal wounds left by social conflict and upheaval. The nature and culture of rugby mean that it is a powerful sport for building trust and friendship through shared experience and we believe that rugby can be used as a social-fabric building tool, especially in a country such as Rwanda which has been successfully rebuilding the unity destroyed by the events of the early 90’s.
