Daily FT
|April 04, 2025
NIGEL Ratwatte, one of Sri Lanka's most versatile, accomplished, knowledgeable and artful rugby players in the recent past has announced his retirement from club rugby after an illustrious 15-year career. He will play the last encounter on 6 April at the Clifford Cup final Against CR in front of his home crowd at Nittawela Rugby Stadium.
Nigel started his junior rugby at Trinity College and moved to South Africa for his studies and played rugby. Having started his club rugby journey at CR & FC, he moved to Up Country Lions in Nawalapitiya before returning to where he was born to play for a Kandy SC, where he represented for 12 successful years.
Ratwatte was widely regarded as a super reader of the game, excelling in multiple positions across the backline. His ability to dictate play, make crucial decisions, and execute under pressure made him a key asset to every team he represented. His leadership on and off the field helped shape the success of Kandy SC during his tenure.
