Meet some of our youth in ADEDAR

We like to put faces to what you support. So... here are some more players and a tiny bit about them.

Mira Marcelino, Mathemele Rugby Club

I am 13 years old. I play for Mathemele Rugby Club. I started playing rugby at Mathemele Primary School in 2018. When I play rugby, I am happy! I feel good because to play is so much fun! If I wasn’t playing rugby, I would probably be doing nothing. My coach is Crelia.

Alicia, ADEDAR Chamanculo

I am 12 years old and I play for ADEDAR Chamanculo at Mista Primary School. I entered rugby thanks to my colleague and friend and I loved it! Now, when I play rugby I feel comfortable and calm and I like it! If I wasn't playing rugby, I would be at home. My coach is Paito.

Neima, Mathemele Rugby Club

I am Neima Rafael. I am 15 years old. I play for Mathemele Rugby Club. I started playing rugby in school when my coach, Crelia, came to introduce rugby. When I play, I feel real good, I feel the passion for what I do on the field because I can express myself on the field! I don’t know what I would be doing if I wasn’t playing rugby, I think maybe at home doing nothing! My coach is Crelia.

Judite, Chamanculo Rugby Club

Hi. My name is Judite. I am 13 years old and I play for ADEDAR Chamanculo at Mista Primary. I entered rugby thanks to my coach Paito and I am loving it. It is so fun! When I play rugby, I always feel such a big emotion! If I wasn't playing rugby, I would be doing ballet classes, but rugby is my life now!

Lucia, Chamanculo Rugby Club

My name is Lucia. I am 10 years old. I play rugby for ADEDAR Chamanculo at Mista Primary. I entered rugby thanks to my friend Judite who invited me. It was there that I really liked trainings and now I am in front of this new sport! When I play rugby I feel immense happiness, and I would also like to say that it is a challenge for me. If I wasn't playing rugby, I would be at home goofing off. My coach is Paito.
