Afternoon all,
I am Part of the England Deaf Rugby Team (EDRU)
England Deaf Rugby (EDRU) is a charity that helps make rugby accessible to all age groups Men, Women and children who are Deaf or Hard of hearing.
EDRU has been in existence since 2003. It was set up by a group of deaf sports enthusiasts including the current President of EDRU, Mr Marcel Hirshman
At its commencement EDRU was an unincorporated association. Its purpose was to promote the playing of rugby union by deaf and hard of hearing players. It was never intended that there should be a separate game of ‘deaf rugby’. The purpose was to provide support to those wishing to participate and deaf awareness to those clubs working with deaf and hard of hearing players. Since 1st May 2009 EDRU has been incorporated as a company limited by guarantee and has been given charitable status (No. 1134194) since 8 February 2010. It has also been accepted as a member of the RFU family of elite teams.
We are always looking for people and companies to help support us in the up and coming 2015-16 season.
