22nd March 2009 Bosnia vs Cyprus The Cyprus National Rugby team singing the National Anthem minutes before their vital top of the table clash against Bosnia in Zenica 22.3.09. The game was played in freezing conditions. Cyprus won 8-6 and are now top of their league. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DuOOh3wUG5Q&feature=related A full match report can be found on our website www.cyprus-rugby.com We should all be proud of these boys, who for the love of their country and their sport, pay their own expenses to have the honour of representing their country. The Cyprus Rugby Federation is asking the Cyprus Sports Organization (KOA) to take serious note, not only of the personal sacrifices of the players, but of their achievements on the field of play. We firmly believe The ''Moufflons'' are now the most successful international team Cyprus has ever had with 8 victories out of our first 9 matches. We hope that KOA appreciates the efforts of our players, and recognizes that they have brought international recognition, honour and success to our country.
