Metro Blind Sport is providing an exciting new sport, Visually Impaired Rugby in East London.

We are very pleased to announce that we have been working in partnership with East London Community Sports Association and The Change Foundation to provide an exciting new sport, Visually Impaired rugby.

For those who may not have heard of VI rugby or would like to know more you can do so by following these two links here:

• https://blindsport.uk/VIRugbyJapan
• https://blindsport.uk/VIRugbyITV

The sessions will be led and coordinated by two experienced rugby coaches who will offer supportive guidance and coaching to those who take part.

The sessions will also take place on an all-weather pitch outdoors. These sessions will reflect the current sessions which exist in West London, Teddington and organised by The Change Foundation.  The first session starts in November and will then continue to run every month in East London.

And to celebrate the beginning of the VI rugby sessions, East London Community Sports Association will kindly be providing post-session food and drinks which we are sure will make everyone feel welcome.
