Ahead of a stakeholder forum to be organised by the Board of the Ghana Rugby Football Union (GRFU), rugby enthusiasts have been urged to submit possible questions that would solicit workable solutions to improve the game in the country.

According to the President of the GRFU, Mr. Herbert Mensah, the questions will help the Board to not only properly prepare for the Forum but it will also help the Board to make sure that all stakeholders’ issues are adequately at the Forum.

“By completing the form and showing your interest and also listing any questions you may need to be addressed you will greatly assist the Rugby Family in Ghana to find a workable solution to escalate the development of Rugby in Ghana,” Mr. Mensah said.

The GRFU Board issued the following as guideline on who may be considered as “Stakeholders” of Ghana Rugby.
