Britain's Prince Harry donned a London Wasps rugby shirt in support of the Invictus Games.

The 29-year-old royal pulled on a limited edition Wasps away shirt, which features the logo of the upcoming event and will be worn during their match against Saracens on Saturday (06.09.14) to raise awareness for the tournament, while catching up with the team's captain James Haskell.

The professional rugby player posted a picture of himself and the prince both sporting the white shirts with black and yellow stripes on his Instagram account.

Alongside the snap, he wrote: "Great to catch up with HRH, & show him Wasps support for the amazing Invictus Games. Go, watch and support these truly inspiring games. We are wearing the kit for the London Double Header, this saturday (sic)."

He jokingly added: "I have Been trying to get him in a Wasps (@waspsrugby) shirt for years, finally found a way! He looks sharp. @invictuslondon (sic)."

The upcoming Invictus Games - which kick off at London's Olympic Park on September 10 - were thought up by the Prince himself in a bid to raise awareness and support of wounded men and women who have served in the armed forces.

Haskell previously said of the Wasps association with the cause: "It's fantastic that Wasps are supporting such an incredible event and giving Invictus Games another platform on which to boost its profile during the first year."

Meanwhile, Prince Harry is set to compete in a celebrity wheelchair rugby match during the tournament, alongside sports stars Dame Kelly Holmes, Denise Lewis, his cousin Zara Phillips - who is part of the British Olympic Equestrian team - and her husband and former rugby pro Mike Tindall.
