Angeles City Rugby 10’s Charity fundraiser & Party, September 1
The annual Fat Boys 10s rugby festival is coming up again, bringing a contingent of rugby enthusiasts from Hong Kong’s Pot Bellied Pigs Rugby Football Club to the Philippines to meet their over-sized local counterparts in Angeles City for a weekend of rugby and partying for charity.
The actual game happens on September 1 at the Challenger Stadium at Clark. On the other days and evenings over the weekend, there are various Fat Boys 10s party events around Angeles which raise money for charity and rugby development, shared between the Angeles Bahay Bata Center – an orphanage run by the local Rotary club - and the Philippines Rugby Football Union’s development fund.
Last year, the Fat Boys 10s raised over US$25,000; this year the target is $32,000. Team base hotel is again the Maharajah; the golf tournament is at the Mimosa Golf Club, Bar HQ is Insomnia; restaurant of choice is Sub-Delicious for the 1,000 pesos per head charity dinner and auction.
