It’s been all go behind the scenes at Dubai Exiles RFC, the UAE and Gulf region’s oldest and most successful rugby club. Playing kit is ordered, pitches are booked, and we’re all set to get the 2024-25 season underway!
2023-24 was another fantastic year for both Dubai Exiles RFC and for UAE rugby. Many Exiles once again represented the UAE on the international rugby stage, boys and girls, men and women.
The UAE finished as runners-up in their first outing in this year’s elite Asia Rugby Championship after wins against the Republic of Korea and Malaysia last month.
Eleven Exiles players were selected to pull on the national shirt for the UAE’s Asia Rugby Championship campaign. Exiles and UAE Head Coach, Jacques Benade, orchestrated things along with Exiles’ Director of Rugby and UAE Coach, DuRandt Gerber, assisted by club doctor, Dr Vishnu ‘Doc’ Radhakrishnan.
The Exiles Under 14s made their now annual trip to Nairobi to make new friends, visit old ones, and play in another friendly tournament organised by the good people at Kenya Harlequins Rugby Club.
