On request of the Lithuanian Rugby Union (LRU), on 10 November the Members of Belarus Rugby Union were hosted in Siauliai (LT). The target to this visit was to meet the Members of LRU, get in touch with Mr Patrick Robin Referees Manager in FIRA-AER, and enlarge the relationships with Lithuanian Rugby Clubs.
The Belarus Members got information on possibilities to register as Member of FIRA-AER. One month ago the LRU has promised to organise a meeting between Belarus Rugby Union and FIRA-AER, this was completed during the ENC2A game Lithuania Vs Netherlands in Siauliai. The speeches have turn around the modalities to affiliate to FIRA-AER. It was accepted that Belarus Rugby Union will have to completed several action in their country before in order to meet the FIRA-AER requirements for a standard affiliation targeted in Stockholm next July 2013 during the summer AGM.
They watched the ENC game and met the Lithuanian 7s League Members to sign agreements to participate in common events over the next 3 years.
