ANNOUNCEMENT: Japan Tour Cancelled

With much regret we are sad to announce that Japan has decided to cancel this year’s tour due to several concerning issues including a shortage of players on their behalf.

Please understand this was beyond our control as we tried to make this work for both parties but unfortunately the circumstances have not been coherent.

However we NZDRFU board has now been corresponding with another country who wishes to host and play against our Deaf Blacks Team. We cannot reveal the country as yet until we have full confirmation.

We would like to thank all the sponsors and the community for their generous contributions & donations toward the Deaf Blacks Team. We have appreciated the support and hope you will continue to support us in the future.

Thank you once again.

Kind regards,
NZDRFU Board
