As a coda to today's activities, the coaching team have dined together in an Italian and the playing shirts have been presented to the travelling team and to Ian.
Perhaps not on the scale of a retired International presenting them, but the gesture has real maning for all participants. when this trip was conceived, it was the idea that the players would 'buy their shirt' to come along and play and take part in the coaching.
The shirts have been bought and a sense of real teamship exists among the players. Irrespective of the results in the matches tomorrow, our coaching team has already realsied the difference intervening in a country like this can have, however small. talk at the table is about a longer lasting legacy for the Foundation once we leave here next week.
