As the country battles the second wave of Covid-19, Rugby India has come forward to aid people by providing them with essentials items like oxygen cylinders, rations, and hospital beds to fight the pandemic. Rugby India players have joined hands with Wolfpack (a group of volunteers) and NGO Goonj to create a war room from where the whole team operates to help people in coping with the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic.

"We started helping people during the first wave but the second wave was more challenging for us as we saw people having different requirements this time for example oxygen cylinders, concentrators, and hospital beds," Saif Ullah Khan, national development manager of Indian Rugby Football Union told ANI. "We started planning and verifying SOS messages, our team used to talk to the people and we tried to fulfill requirements. Our team collaborated with non-rugby players who also wanted to help during the grim situation," he further said.
