Two centurion Australian Wallabies Rugby players, Will Genia and Matt Giteau, have arrived in Port Moresby today on a two-day visit.
Capital Rugby Union (CRU) President Kori Chan said that the visit by the two will be to conduct coaching clinics for selected men and women players as well as coaches and officials today.
They will be joined by Aiden Toua who now resides in Port Moresby.
“A coaching clinic with selected players, both men and women from the 10 clubs affiliated to Pepsi CRU will be held from 6pm to 7.30pm under lights at the Sir Hubert Murray stadium at Konedobu.”
He said that on Thursday, both Genia and Giteau will visit sponsors Pacific Industries at 6 Mile, Moni Plus Headquarters in Gordons to meet staff, and a public meet with shoppers for autographs and photo opportunities at the Central Waigani Stop N Shop supermarket between 1pm and 2pm.
Chan said CRU was grateful to have the two Wallabies legends in Port Moresby to share their knowledge and expertise in the game with the players and coaches.
“We thank Will and Matt for making time available to come to Port Moresby to support our vision in raising the level of the competition.”
Three weeks ago, Paddy Ryan and Aiden Toua ran similar clinics, and what the players and coaches got out from this has been evident in their games over the past two rounds.
