Delhi Hurricanes is one of the top clubs from India. Current 7's champions with about 12 Indian team players in the squad.
For the past two years we have been practicing at DDA sports complex, Bloc 7, Vasant Kunj, Delhi, India. With an annual contract with DDA for leasing the ground to Delhi Hurricanes Rugby Club for four days every week( Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday) with a time slot for 7 A.M - 10 A.M.
We have even hosted Indian club tournaments and Indian rugby camp at the ground.
Now the authorities are trying to convert our ground into a cricket ground. By this they are snatching away a big part of our lives from us. We currently have a main team, junior team, women's team and an academy running. We will have to evacuate the ground if cricket starts on the ground.
Our club played a big hand in building the ground by putting up the posts, removing stones, growing grass.
With this decision Rugby in Delhi is going to die.
I request you all to Sign the petition below in order to help us save the sport we love so dearly.
Thank you all for your support.
SAVE RUGBY IN DELHI
Dear Sir/Madam
It has come to our notice that you are planning to turn the rugby pitch at DDA sports complex, Bloc 7, Vasant Kunj, Delhi, India into a cricket ground and stop Rugby and football in the ground.
The academy running currently at DDA Sports complex is a huge step in popularizing the sport of rugby in India.
We, the undersigned, call on the authorities to stop the conversion of the rugby ground into a cricket pitch and let the Rugby academy and the Delhi Hurricanes club to use the ground for development of our beloved sport.
Thank you.
