SBI sponsors the Australian Army Rugby Old Boys

30th September 2014

Sea Box International is proud to be a gold sponsor of the Australian Army Rugby Old Boys’ tour to Turkey in April 2015.

To mark the centenary of ANZAC, the Australian Army Rugby Old Boys (Leopards) will travel to Canakkale (Gallipoli) to play a friendly match against the oldest rugby club in Turkey, the Istanbul Ottomans. This game will hold a special place within the Australian Army and Old Boys as the first ever game of rugby in Turkey was by Australian soldiers at Gallipoli. It has also been estimated that approximately 5,000 Australian rugby players ultimately went on active war service between 1914 and 1918.
