Rives-50s or 70s


Dear Hamish Fyfe,

"Maybe 1 for the website . I have pointed out to this chap that Rives played in the 70's and I'm pretty sure of my facts as I played against him .

Regards

Hamish"

Dear Hamish,

Thank you for the correction notification. No one needs an extra 20 years tacked on to their age! We will correct this in our future e-mails. Thank also for your support of the Try For Others Foundation.
I truly appreciate your assistance in helping us reach out to injured rugby players

As France is hosting the Rugby World Cup this year, it is appropriate to recall the words of the 1950s French rugby player, Jean-Pierre Rives, who once remarked, “The whole point of rugby is that it is, first and foremost, a state of mind, a spirit.” For those devoted to the game, Rives comment reminds us that the game of rugby transcends sport by uniting a global community through common values such as teamwork, selflessness, and concern for both the game, and those who play it.





It is in this spirit that the Try For Others Foundation was established to help rugby players with life-altering injuries live a more active and independent lifestyle.


Although the game of rugby has changed since Rives made his observation over a half-century ago, the spirit of rugby has not. The Try For Others Foundation invites you to embrace that spirit by placing an ad box for the “Uniting Rugby Worldwide” t-shirt on your webpage. All proceeds from this limited edition, Canterbury of New Zealand, t-shirt will go to help rugby players who have suffered life-altering injuries.

Please forward this e-mail to your contacts so that we can continue to assist injured rugby players on their road to recovery!



Sincerely,



Dominic Cooke
Founder
