The new concept of ex rugby players from all clubs in Sri Lanka is a refreshing idea and the brainchild of Shehan Wijewardena of the Walawwa an ex CH &FC and CR &FC player .
The initial get together featured some absolute legends of the calibre of Lorenz Pereira, Noel Brohier, Reggie Bartholomews and several other former stars.
It has the makings of a great idea that gives birth to a gathering of a fraternity that provided Sri Lanka with entertainment on and off the rugby field.
Kelvin and Vanessa Speldewinde and their band Pressure Drop provided the entertainment.
Kelvin Speldewinde was himself a former star turning out for Havelock’s as a speedy winger and Sri Lanka Colts player now a top notch musician.
More on this segment to follow.
