The cause of rugby at Royal College will continue to be supported once again by KIA.
This is the sixth consecutive year that KIA is backing the Reid Avenue boys as Sole Team Sponsor and the third year of its Rs 27 million sponsorship that encompasses the College’s First XV as well as the Under-14, Under-16 and Under-18 rugby teams.
KIA’s sponsorship agreement was signed at the Royal College Rugby Complex by the directors of KIA Motors (Lanka) Limited and the Chairman and members of the Royal College Rugby Advisory Committee.
Royal College’s First XV retained the Bradby Shield in 2016 after the double header against arch rivals Trinity College was tied 35 each, and retained the B.C. Anghie Trophy defeating St. Peter’s College 33-24.
The team relinquished the Michael Gunaratne Trophy and the Milroy Fernando Trophy, but gave fans much to cheer about with many memorable games, including a nail biting draw against St. Joseph’s College in the Singer League, in which it took third place. Royal College was also the runner-up in the 2016 all island Milo President’s Trophy knockout tournament.
The Royal College First XV team will be captained by fly half Ovin Seniya Askey in 2017 and have eight coloursmen.
