VANCOUVER - Be sure to check out BC Rugby's latest video promotion 'Connect With Your Club'. The promotion features a number of accomplished and emerging British Columbian rugby players identifying the core values of our great sport.

A video has been customized for each club in the British Columbia Rugby Union to provide a platform for further engaging members of their community. The promotion touches on how rugby is the ultimate team sport, what opportunities await and how the sport builds confidence. The call to action is to connect with a club in your region.

A number of familiar faces can be seen in the video as current and former national team players discuss how rugby has impacted their professional lives, provided opportunities for travel and the camaraderie behind one of the fastest growing team sports in the world.

Featured in the video are former World Cup standouts Mike James (Accredited Mortgage Professional with Dominion Lending Centres Network) and Anna Schenll (Broker with Colliers Interational) as well as former rugby player and B2GOLD CEO Clive Johnson.

In the video you will also hear from Harry Jones (Canada 7s, Canada U20), Andrea Burke (Canada 15s and 7s) and Liam Murphy-Burke (Canada U19) as they highlight the opportunities rugby has afforded them. BC U18 provincial team standouts Harjun Gill and Cheyenne Conrad provide insight to how high school athletes can benefit from the sport and the opportunities that await them in the near future.

BC Rugby would like to thank brudder Video + Motion Graphics for their efforts in producing the promotional videos and our interviewees for sharing their stories with us.

We now turn to the clubs in the BC Rugby Union and ask that you share your customized videos with pride in your community and help future players connect with their clubs.
