2007 SOS 's inspection visit to Croatia

SOS's Andy Thompson completed a busy inspection visit to Croatia with Croatian Federation Development Manager Tihomir Jankovic. Many teams were visited and all were fullsome in their praise for SOS IRB Kit Aid.

Andy now has a list of Croatian Clubs that have received SOS IRB kit (Rugby Clubs Sinj, Sisak, Rijeka, Knin, Zagreb, Makarska, Brac, Nada, Mladosat, Lokomotiva and Zadar).

SOS also has a copy of the ambitious Croatian Federation 5 year Strategic Development Plan. The Federation want to increase the number of schools playing rugby and to develop girls/ladies rugby too. SOS will continue to support in any way that it can.

Since SOS started delivering kit in early 2006 we have delivered 1,345 rugby shirts, 684 rugby shorts, 200 pairs of rugby boots and 166 rugby balls.

First inspection visit by SOS to Croatia !

In order to set up the first deliveries to the Croatia, Andy Thompson recently visited Split to meet the Croatian President Branimir Marovic and General Secretary Velimir Juricko.


The purpose of the visit is to see their needs at first hand and to check customs documents for kit deliveries. Though Croatia is not the poorest nation in Europe, they still have a great need for resources when trying to grow junior rugby in clubs and schools.

They are delighted to be part of SOS IRB Kit Aid and receiving help. As with all rugby people throughout the world Andy very much enjoyed his visit and we will be keeping you in touch with Croatia's progress.
