Southwark Tigers

The Adam Cole Foundation has become the main kit sponsor for Southwark Tigers Rugby Club, supplying both playing and training kit. The Foundation has also agreed to help supply the Tigers with a new minibus. This is fantastic as it will allow the Tigers to play away games.

Established eight years ago, Southwark Tigers was the first inner city junior rugby club in England. It is a charity which provides a safe environment for children and young people in the Southwark area to play rugby and other physical activities.

On November 9th 2008 the Trustees and ex-England Captain Martin Corry attended a training session at Burgess Park in Bermondsey at which the new kit was unveiled. Martin played with and coached the players and these photos show how amazing the day was. A few years ago rugby was hardly heard of in this area of London�.thanks to Martin, the Foundation and Vernon at the Southwark Tigers, a double World Cup finalist was playing alongside the boys and girls in a park!
