Invictus Movie is exactly what we need!!!

I had the privilege of seeing a pre-screening of the Invictus movie tonight. In addition to great stars and a good story line, the movie really did showcase rugby. Nearly the entire second half is all rugby!

HOW YOU CAN HELP:
I brought a ball with me and immediately after the movie people were asking all kinds of questions. Make sure you wear a jersey and bring a ball when you go see this movie and people will approach you. When they ask questions make sure you finish up your conversation with a point of access for them; i.e. 'Our website is www.xyz.com' or 'there are all ages of rugby being played in the area, check it out'. Make sure you drive them to a rugby source and get them involved.

I was at the theater about 20 minutes after the movie let out just chatting with interested people!

Keep it positive, highlight the good parts, give them an access point for the game and share your passion with the viewing public. This movie will bring people to our sport!!!!!!!!!

"Invictus" is a sports movie that is more about what's happening in the stands than on the playing field. It tells the “inspiring true story of Nelson Mandela and I am very big fan of him. Morgan Freeman plays the role of Nelson Mandela. Really it sounds very interesting story. So, I m very curious to watch Invictus movie.
