Despite a crowd that chanted “Team Harry,” Prince Harry and his team lost the match against a team of wounded Nigerian soldiers.
As reported last month, Harry and wife Meghan Markle are currently on their first official international tour since stepping down from their royal duties in 2020. Though the couple are now living as quasi-private citizens with Netflix deals and jam lines, they have kept up their commitment to the Invictus Games, which Prince Harry founded while in his royal role, following his deployment in Afghanistan.
According to the BBC, on Saturday the couple visited Nigeria Unconquered, an Abuja-based charity for sick and wounded service members that partners with the Invictus Foundation to provide specialized sports rehab facilities and adaptive sports programs. Harry and Meghan took in a number of those programs, including a seated volleyball match at an outdoor court. Initially, the couple were mere spectators, but then Harry was invited to join in.
