COBRA 10'S MINI TOURNAMENT

Establishing its legacy in 1967, the COBRA 10s is recognized as the world's first-ever 10-a-side rugby tournament. Organized by the Combined Old Boys Rugby Association (COBRA) in Malaysia, this prestigious event has become a staple of the global rugby circuit, celebrated for its high-octane pace and the unique balance it strikes between the speed of Sevens and the tactical physicality of Fifteens. For the upcoming edition, the Ceylon Tuskers Juniors are set to make a significant impact by fielding a formidable Under-12 (U12) team. Comprising some of the brightest young talents from Sri Lanka, the Junior Tuskers are traveling to Malaysia with a reputation for discipline, explosive speed, and technical proficiency. This U12 squad represents the next generation of Sri Lankan rugby stars, aiming to test their mettle against top-tier international competition on the historic grounds of Petaling Jaya.
