THE victorious Sables are expected to arrive in Harare on Tuesday.
This is after the Zimbabwe Rugby team managed to win the Rugby Africa Cup days ago in Uganda, earning a place at the 2027 Rugby World Cup in the process.
They got the better of Namibia in the final, and the finalists will now be banking on play-offs to qualify.
The Sables became the second African country, after South Africa, to book a place at the World Cup in Australia.
The Sports and Recreation Commission (SRC) will welcome the team.
“You are cordially invited to cover the arrival and Welcome Reception for the Rugby Africa Cup championship winning Sables at Robert Mugabe International Airport at 1830 hours this evening,” SRC said, inviting media for the event.
