The Lost Afternoon Rugby Luncheon is honored to welcome one of the true legends of the game—Naas Botha—as our guest speaker for 2026!
Join us on Friday, July 17, 2026, at Cathedral High School in Houston as we gather once again to celebrate rugby, reconnect with friends, and hear from one of the most iconic figures in international rugby history.
The Lost Afternoon, established in 2009, continues its tradition of bringing together players, supporters, and rugby enthusiasts from across generations—all while raising support for youth rugby and the growth of the game we love.
We are especially grateful to Naas Botha for joining us and sharing his time, stories, and insights with our community. This will be a truly special moment for Houston rugby.
