Rwandan rugby powerhouses 1000 Hills and Muhanga Thunders will not play the 2024 rugby league season, the local rugby body has confirmed.
"We made this difficult decision...because our sponsor has stepped back in sponsoring our club toward participating in the league," the club further explained. "It's sad that they won't participate but we have no choice. We would do anything to have these teams back. We tried to help 1000 Hills, for instance, but, unfortunately, it didn't materialize," said Philippe Gakirage RRF second vice president.Ex-rugby champions 1000 Hills and the local rugby federation have not been seeing eye to eye since the club was denied the 2023 league title under unclear circumstances as previously alleged by club president Serge Shema.
"We requested them that letter but they have never brought it. We hope they bring it so we can get them registered as requested because it's a condition...then they can resume competitions as usual.
