Handing over of rugby balls, development programmes to lesser known schools in the Central region plus all arrangements were made to conduct the Central Province Under 19 Sevens and XV-a-side events but due to Covid we could not conduct these events. Further we did strength and conditioning training event under Mothilal Jayathilake and Level 1 coaching programme where more than 15 participated.
