Association Give a Try
Give a Try is a Belgian association born from the desire of members (players, coaches, managers, supporters and friends) of the Royal Kituro Rugby Club to use sport to support an international solidarity project. The club, founded in 1961 and renamed "Royal" in 2011, is a major institution in Belgian rugby. It has built itself on a strong tradition: youth development, sporting excellence, and community engagement. Give a Try extends this legacy by developing a structured sports cooperation program with Burundi..
