iTry goes North!

The iTry program is growing from strength to strength as Promasidor have proposed to extend iTry northwards to Kano.

Impressed with the success of the Lagos program Promasidor have decided that the ancient city of Kano should be included in iTry rugby starting 2014, with a vision to expand the program nationwide.

Promasidor believe in the benefits of a well organised sports program for Nigerian youth, and especially iTry rugby.  The program in Kano will be administered by Barewa Rugby Club.
