Sincere appreciation to Mr. Qais Al Dhalai and Asia Rugby for their continuous support and commitment to the growth and success of Afghanistan Rugby

From the veterans who’ve carried the flag for years to the new players stepping onto the field for the first time — this is what Afghanistan Rugby is all about: unity, passion, and perseverance.

Every tackle, every run, every moment on the pitch in Oman showed the heart of a team that never gives up. The journey continues, stronger than ever. 🏉
