Hong Kong, 3 September 2004 - Two Up Front has cemented its position as a leading publisher of rugby materials by winning the contract to produce the official programme for the forthcoming Asian championships.

The sports PR and publishing - which already produces Rugby Talk, the official magazine of the Hong Kong Rugby Football Union - will produce a glossy 60-page programme for the biennial Asian Rugby Football Tournament (ARFT), to be held in Hong Kong from October 27-31, 2004.

Welcoming the news, Two Up Front’s editorial director, Niall Donnelly, said: “The Hong Kong Rugby Football Union is committed to staging the best ARFT ever - and we are equally determined to produce the best ARFT programme ever. We will be working closely with all 14 national rugby unions involved in the tournament to produce an action-packed programme which fully reflects both the importance of the event and Asia’s burgeoning rugby scene.”

Two Up Front’s project director, Simon Wait, will head up the creative team entrusted with the task of coming up with an exciting and innovative design for the programme, which will be sold at all match venues.

Publication of the ARFT’s official programme will add to Two Up Front’s rapidly expanding portfolio of sports publications and media relations clients.
