Due to the effects of the Coronavirus pandemic Rugby Africa has decided to annul its competitions in 2020 to protect the health of all the players and their families.
In a statement Rugby Africa said that the current bans on travel, public gatherings and sporting events across the continent meant that it was unlikely competitions will resume this year.
Rugby Africa said it had held regular, consultative online meetings to talk with federations and doctors concerning the health situation brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Several competitions have been affected including the Rugby Africa Cup, which was due to kick off on May 30, 2020.
Despite the cancellation, Rugby Africa stated that it was working hard to implement local-level activities and competitions by the end of the year.
