Tharindu to lead Kingswood in rugby

Kingswood College will be led by Tharindu Weligampola during the 2018 school rugby season. 

The Randles Hill school was the first institution to start rugby in 1906 and played their first game against Trinity College in a 6-6 draw. They have produced many top-class players who have gone on to represent Sri Lanka. A few of these players are Fazil Marija, Gayan Weeraratne, Lavanga Perera, Oshan Perera, Nilfer Ibfrahim, Amjad Buksh and Mohamed Abzal. 

They will be coached by Dinesh Gamage. The fitness of the outfit will be looked after by Indunil Wickramasinghe. 

Kingswood will join Trinity College, St. Anthony’s College and Dharmaraja in the top division of the Singer schools league competition. (SJ)
