Lahore School Rugby Team



The Lahore School Rugby team was established on November 25, 2011 and with almost the entire team relying on the coaching of two students ( Umair Ghuman and Wajih Zafar) , the only players to have played the sport before, have slowly and gradually risen to respectable heights. Within three months of its formation, the team claimed the scalps of notable teams and has continuously given tough contes
ts to reputed teams. 

With steady progression, the team is expected to hit new heights and establish rugby as a prominent sport at the university and it is hard to remember the last time rugby team lost a single match.

Notable achievements over the past year:
- Sair Riaz Lahore School Student selected as Pakistan National Team Captain
-1st place LUMS tri-series – November 2012
-1st place in rugby tournament in FAST-NU Islamabad Sports Gala - November 2012
-1st place in rugby in the Lahore School Sports Fiesta - May 2012
-2nd place in DHA Rugby 7s tournament - March 2012
-3rd place in UMT Intervarsity 7s tournament - March 2012

  13. On a personal level rugby is the best thing that ever happened to me. what started off as just an amusement has now taken over many people and become the mainstream sport in Lahore school of economics leaving football, basketball and volleyball behind. a great article by the great umair ghuman himself who started this all.
    cheers :)

  15. This was an excellent read. I have witnessed first hand the development of LSE rugby from its infancy to becoming one of the best teams in universities in Lahore. Although success on the field can seemingly be everything, the off-the-field endeavors by you, not just in your managerial role but also in keeping our supporters, friends et al. have been crucial. Your write-ups have been concise, accurate and informative and this post has again underlined your writing skills.

    Although this is makes for a short read, this post has captured all the achievements of LSE rugby over the past year and has highlighted the high points of the rugby program. I strongly urge you to expand your role from not just helping LSE rugby in maintaining an excellent presence on social media, but also to keep this blog active with weekly write-ups so that interest in our sport is maintained and fostered further. Lastly, thank you so much for the work you have put in and this post. Best of luck :)
