The eLan Rugby Legends is a group of ex-Springbok rugby players who have formed a Charitable trust. The express purpose of the trust is to raise funds for the development of rugby at grass roots and Club rugby thus providing a vehicle for the ex-players to put something back into rugby.

The main purpose of the Legends brand worldwide is to highlight the plight of amateur rugby due to the advent of professional rugby. All money in rugby goes towards the professional code of the game and this has led to the neglect of the amateur clubs on a worldwide scale.

The eLan / SARLA 'Field of Dreams' initiative is an effort to raise funds for SARLA's various social development programmes. The eLan Group have generously donated a plot of land at the Blythedale Coastal Resort which will be raffled off once four thousand pledges have been made and honoured.

To make a pledge, participants need to make a donation of R1000 and will receive a T-shirt branded with the initiatives logo as a receipt.

The idea behind the T-shirt is that participants are essentially making the pledge to show they have made a difference on the off chance they may win a plot of land at Blythedale.

Iqhawe Programme

Iqhawe - translated "Hero" or "Champion" in Xhoza- is a project run by the South African Rugby Legends Association to raise the bar on rugby development throughout South Africa.

The South African Rugby Legends Association has coached 35,000 children from all backgrounds in the last five years. The original module of running one-off programmes in which a training session was held - without any context - had no real impact on them or their game. The South African Rugby Legends decided that they wanted to do more for the young aspiring players.

"Adopt-a-School"

The ever-proactive South African Rugby Legends Association, who have a number of far-reaching projects under their belt already, are addressing the need to transform and develop not only rugby but also broader education needs at a grass-roots level by creating their Adopt-A-School programme.

For the last year CEO of South African Rugby Legends Association (SARLA), John Allan who is a former Springbok, Scottish and Sharks player, has embarked on a nationwide campaign to get the 100 top schools around the country to enlist in the Adopt-A-School programme.

The South African Rugby Legends would like to congratulate the JAG Foundation on a well-supported banquet as well as throw our support behind them for the good work they are doing.

The JAG Sports and Education Foundation was formed in order to give the youth of South Africa an opportunity to develop and achieve their potential through sport and education. The focuse is on education and sport development at a grass roots level, by giving the youth hope and encouraging young South Africans to dream and to transform their dreams into achievable realities.

At a recent banquet, amongst others, Bruce Fordyce, Robbie Fleck, Nick Farr-Jones, Pieter De Villiers and Elana Meyer all attended.
