2012 Golden Oldies Rugby Festival in Japan

Japan to Hold Golden Oldies Tournament.

From the 28th of October to the 4th of November, 2012 the City of Fukuoka, Japan is set to host the Golden Oldies Rugby festival. This will be a first for Japan.

Fukuoka was voted 14 in the 2010 poll of the worlds most livable cities. Fukuoka is known for the beautiful green spaces in a city setting.

With the recent disaster in Japan I would image plans may be changed. I only hope that it will go on for the sake of the Japanese people. I would imagine it is/was to be a wonderful tournament. The Japanese do things really well especially with Fukuoka being considered Japans sporting capital.

Fukuoka was on the south western coast well away for the badily affected areas. But the damage to Japans infastructure may make it impossible to hold the tournament. I will post any updates as they come in.
