In preparation for Help for Heroes charity challenge match
Rugby legends were at the Civil Service Sports Grounds this week preparing for this Saturday’s charity challenge match and some lucky pupils from Cavendish School’s years five and six were invited to go down to meet the stars and watch them train.
The charity match, The Legends of Rugby, has been organised as a show of support for Help for Heroes and the extraordinary men and women of our Armed Forces. Sporting stars including Lawrence Dallaglio, Scott Gibbs, Martin Johnson, Jonah Lomu, Will Greenwood and other great men will join with the best of the Armed Forces players to battle it out in a spectacular game to raise money for the wounded.
Twickenham have donated the grounds free of charge and all the players are giving their time for free in the hope that the event will raise £1 million.
