Grassroots Welsh rugby gets boost

A £250,000 grant has been secured by the WRU to invest into grassroots Welsh rugby.

The Foundation for Sports and Arts has provided the money and it is hoped that the cash will be used by clubs to improve facilities.

WRU Chief Executive Roger Lewis commented, “Grassroots rugby clubs are the heart and soul of the game in Wales. That’s why we are delighted with the level of support we have received from the Foundation of Sports and Arts and that’s why the WRU is prepared to invest so much into the community game.”
