2019 Rugby Africa season
The 2019 Rugby Africa season experienced significant restructuring and downsizing from the previous two seasons due to the loss of sponsor Kwese Sports.[1] Due to the lack of funding, the previous formats of the Gold, Silver, and Bronze divisions of the Africa Cup were replaced with a revival of the Victoria Cup[2] and a regional West African series.
