Jamaica will today join the Rugby League playing nations of the world with the Caribbean's first organised and sanctioned games of Rugby League at the Cling Cling Oval on Olympic Way Kingston 11.
The Olympic Angels will host the Vauxhall Vultures, followed by the Duhaney Park Sharks versus the Jamaica Defence Force. Kick-off is at 6:00 pm and 8:00 pm, respectively.
Organisers say that in pre-season games, the reaction of spectators has been very enthusiastic, and they have responded well to the pace and hard-hitting nature of the game. The huge, speedy athletes have generated a lot of interest and excitement, they say.
