Brent Impey: Former New Zealand Rugby Chairman on Kiwi K.A.R.E initiative to support Ukrainian rugby players who have been affected by war

Former New Zealand Rugby Chairman Brent Impey is taking part in rugby initiative Kiwi K.A.R.E to help support rugby players in Ukraine who have been affected by war.  Impey has been working alongside Sir Graham Henry and other volunteers to help Ukrainian rugby teams continue to train and upskill their players.  Trustee of Kiwi Aid and Refugee Evacuation, Impey tells Tim Beveridge he visited players in Ukraine and found they are still playing rugby throughout the Russian invasion.  The Ukrainian team is hoping to qualify for the Olympics, and Impey is working with groups of 20 men and 20 women to build the national team amongst the region’s turmoil.  “It is absolutely inspirational.”  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
