Nigeria Rugby Announces Partnership With Samurai Sport

Few days after organisers of the 50th edition of the All Africa games decided to yank off Rugby from the games, Multisport Team wear brand Samurai Sportswear has unveiled an exciting new partnership package with the Nigeria Rugby Foorball Federation.
According to the deal, the global sport brand will act as the official kit supplier to the Nigeria 7s team for the next one year subject to extension.

This is coming as a big boost for the Black Stallions who are currently in contention for the 2016 Olympic Games qualifications.
According to the deal signed with the NRFF, the eye catching jerseys will be worn during the Africa 7s Tournament in Johannesburg, South Africa in November which doubles as qualifiers for the Olympic Games in Rio next year.

According to Samurai sportswear, the shirt design will draw heavy inspiration from the Nigerian flag.

Speaking during the official signing, a delighted vice president of the federation, Fasimoye Olatunji, said this came as a relief after the recent AAG disappointment and an indication that the recent milestones being recorded by the sport in Nigeria is not going unnoticed.
