For many players, having the honour of representing Britain at one of rugby's most iconic venues will be a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
The British Police Rugby Team's tours have long demonstrated the power of sport to unite law enforcement professionals and engage meaningfully with international communities. This highly anticipated tour is set to promote wellness, cultural understanding, and global cooperation among police and the communities they protect. While touring South Africa, the team will visit underprivileged youth with a passion for rugby, donating equipment and encouraging the development of future players.
Dave Kirk, founder of Detego Global and lifelong rugby enthusiast, shared his anticipation for the new partnership:
"As a fan of rugby since I played at school, supporting the British Police Rugby Team during its centenary year is nothing short of an honour. It's a sport of integrity that reflects our deep commitment to strengthening the law enforcement community in insightful ways. Through sponsorships like this, we aim to foster connections and reinforce the values shared by law enforcement and Detego Global. This partnership is sure to give back to those who work tirelessly to keep our communities safe."
Nick Bracken OBE DL, Chief Executive Officer of 4 Nations Police Rugby and Tour Chairman, expressed gratitude for the support:

Detego Global's commitment to innovation and community-building has made a real difference, and we're excited to mark this historic milestone together and build on the legacy of the past century."
