A heartfelt thank you to Rugby Africa President, Herbert Mensah, for taking the time to address the team and share his inspiring words ahead of the campaign.
Your encouragement, belief, and unwavering support continue to motivate the Sables as we strive for excellence on and off the field.

To my young buddies, the @SablesRugbyZW — good luck ahead of your match tomorrow against the South Africa ‘A’ Team. This is part of the process and the progress.
There will be hard knocks, hard times, and difficult matches, but from such a small budget, we are going to conquer the world.
I’m not interested in the results; I’m interested in supporting and cheering you, because this is just the beginning. Play, leave politics for the politicians, and know the whole world is watching.
Thank you, Mark Alexander, for making this possible. Go Sables, go. 🏉🇿🇼

🚨 TEAM ANNOUNCEMENT 🚨
The wait is over. Your Zimbabwe Sables squad to take on South Africa 'A' has been named.
A proud opportunity to test ourselves against quality opposition as we continue our journey towards bigger challenges ahead.
📍Africa’s first lithium sulphate:
Prospect Lithium has today sent out its first shipment of lithium sulphate from its new US$400M plant at Arcadia Mine. It is the first time this product has been made in Zimbabwe, and in Africa, the company says.
This marks a shift toward more local processing of lithium.
Says Prospect: “This inaugural shipment represents the first lithium salt ever produced in Zimbabwe and across Africa, marking a major step forward in regional mineral beneficiation and industrialisation.”
In 2022, Zimbabwe banned exports of raw lithium. By then, major miners, including Huayou Cobalt’s Prospect, were already processing ore into concentrates.
Last year, Zimbabwe raised the value addition bar further: from 2027, miners are expected to export lithium as a sulphate, a higher-value product used in battery materials.
A 10% tax on concentrates is in place to push miners to make sulphates.
Government suspended concentrate exports in February. It has since allowed limited exports under quotas as miners move production up the value chain.
@nickmangwana Ghana's water bodies and fertile cocoa lands have been devastated by this exact activity. Don't let Zimbabwe fall victim to this environmental brutality and irresponsible mining.
Hon. Vangelis Peter Haritatos, Minister of Lands and Rural Development, pledged a transparent land policy guided by a national master plan, close collaboration with the Agriculture Ministry, provincial specialisation, reforms to land administration through digitalisation, and firm action against corruption in line with President Mnangagwa’s vision.
Victoria Falls is experiencing the largest volume of water in 70 years right now.
On the border between Zimbabwe and Zambia (with 75% of the best views only visible from Zimbabwe), the falls are the largest curtain of falling water in the world.
Kariba Dam will probably overspill this year & we might see the sluice gates opened for the first time in many many years, @mimmitwit@Mavhure@matigary@Zimparks
During the 1953 Royal Tour, Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother, visited the Leopard Rock Hotel in the Bvumba Mountains with Princess Margaret. She was so captivated by the property and its sweeping views of the Eastern Highlands that she famously wrote:
"There is nowhere more beautiful in Africa."
Visit Zimbabwe.
The stage is set for a world-class spectacle 🌍🏉
