Following a meeting with the RLIF
President Mr. Colin Love, we have approved your scheduled match against
Italy for September 2003.
I would like to congratulate your efforts if developing Rugby League with
the Greek community.
A similar strategy was adopted by Lebanon with an Australian lead Lebanese
team playing
match here as well as in France and Lebanon. They also played in the 2000
Rugby League World Cup in England.
A direct result of this has seen the creation of a Lebanese Rugby League
competition in Lebanon, with 4 clubs playing.
They will host the Mediterranean Cup competition in October with France,
Morocco
and Italy playing in the event.
I hope that the long-term objective is for a Greek team to be added to this
competition and to continue to promote the sport internationally.
Your planned match against Italy has the support of the International
Federation and we look to further links with your homeland in years to come
with a domestic competition.
We are also prepared to help with equipment, coaches and referees.
Please don't hesitate in calling me for further details.
Kind regards
Tas Baitieri
International Development manager
