Pakistan Army Rugby Team in Sri Lanka

July 25, 2017

As part of the ongoing Army-to-Army Sports Exchange Program between Pakistan and Sri Lanka, a 17-Member Pakistan Army Rugby Team, arrived in Colombo yesterday (24th July).

The Pakistan Army Rugby team, led by Brigadier Ghulam Jilani, will play a bilateral series with SLA Rugby Team from 25th July to 1st August.

Bilateral sports exchange program between the two armed forces has been working very well. Pakistan Army Hockey and Pakistan Air Force soccer teams visited Sri Lanka in December 2016 to play friendly matches against Sri Lanka Army and Sri Lanka Air Force teams, respectively.

Both sides have resolved to intensify sports and cultural cooperation for enhancing people to people contacts.
