The national rugby team known as the ‘Green Machine’ is in the red and will need support from the government and the private sector in order to face Mexico on July 27 in the final of the Rugby America’s North (RAN) 15s championship.
According to president of the rugby union, Peter Green, the national men’s 15s team will need in the neighborhood of $15M to blanket all expenses for the all-important away game.
The team which has leaped nine places to 46 (their highest world ranking ever) after three wins in the tourney, has done Guyana proud over the years but their efforts have failed to garner substantial financial support.
