Regan picks his boots up to play again
September 24, 2009
Former Lion’s hooker Mark Regan is dusting off his running machine after he was invited to play in the Bermuda Classics tournament in November. The ex Bristol and Bath player stopped playing competitively at the end of last season and has been quoted as saying that “he is really looking forward to the challenge”.
The World Rugby Classics event will take place in Bermuda between the 7th and 14th of November and the Classic Lions are getting ready for the challenge of defending the title they won last time around.
The event started life in 1988 and was primarily for rugby stars whose playing career was coming to an end. It gave them the opportunity to extend their careers a little and play against each other.
Magnificent rugby players like Wade Dooley, John Mcbride, Gavin Hastings and Philippe Sella have all made the journey to the British overseas territory in the past.
This year’s event is approaching fast and definitely a tournament to mark on your calendar.
