Teams from across the country joined us at the AJ Bell Stadium in Salford this week for our annual ‘Give It A Try For Charity’ touch rugby tournament – raising money to help men deal with mental health challenges.
Teams of all ages and rugby experience took to the pitch for the series of friendlies – with PWC taking the crown at the end of the evening.
Our CEO, Jonathan Murphy, says: “That so many teams joined us this year is testament to the great work of the foundations we’re supporting – it was an evening of fun but most importantly, we raised money for a cause which is finally getting the attention it deserves.”
The proceeds from the night are going to support the Offload programme run by the foundations at Salford Red Devils and Warrington Wolves, helping men to deal with mental health issues using rugby and training techniques.
