I've raised £3000 to pay for 200 new rugby balls and 50 pairs of new boots to be taken to Jamaica and given directly to rugby-playing high schools on the island.

Story
If you don't have a ball you cant play.
Cobham Rugby Club is touring Jamaica in April this year and while on the island will be visiting rugby playing High schools to donate as much rugby kit as we can.
So on this basis and with the knowledge that one School we spoke to said:
"I currently have only two balls working with a team of 40-plus players"
We decided to focus on bringing as many balls as possible; 100 is our minimum target. This Photo is of the team from Aabuthnott Gallimore High School (https://www.facebook.com/aabuthnott.gallimorehigh) in Alexandria, Jamaica.
Rugby Balls will be supplied by https://www.ramrugby.co.uk who have discounted the purchase price for this cause.
Flights, ground transfers and accommodation has been paid for by the touring party and tour sponsors. https://www.jpshipping.co.uk and https://www.geestline.com/
We are asking you for £7.20 each to help this fundraise...
Thank you!
