Hey Guys,

Let me know if you’re in for tomorrow.  Clearly we all love Wednesday rugby (we had 26 show up last week!) but confirm so we can make it official that we’re going to play.

Also, I’ll be collecting fees for participation in the upcoming touch rugby tournament for anyone who’s interested in playing for DC Touch.  The tournament is on Saturday October 5th.  It’s $20 per person.  Not bad for several hours of competitive rugby and good food. 

Hey guys,

Rugby’s on.  It’s hot.  It’s humid.  Stop whining…

See everyone at 15th and Constitution (White House Side) at 6, or earlier if you can make it!

Hey all,

We haven’t played in a week!  I know you’re desperate for swift passes and glory runs, so let’s get some good numbers for tomorrow.  There’s an added incentive to show up.  This Saturday, our old friends from Maryland (Columbia Rugby) are planning to come down to play a couple of games against us.  Naturally, we’ll want to be well-practiced and prepared.  A good run on Wednesday will go a long way ensuring we play our best come Saturday.  If that’s not reason to show, then I don’t know what is. 

Also, if you’re a regular Wednesday player, but don’t show up to Saturdays, no worries.  Please come out tomorrow in any case.   It’s fun to have a large, diverse crowd of ruggers show up.

Okay, let me know if you’re in, guys. 

Hey guys.  There was very little interest for rugby tomorrow. Gotta cancel. Hopefully we get numbers for Wednesday. 

Hey guys,

Who’s in for Saturday touch? Going to be a perfect day tomorrow. Don’t waste it. 

As is typical for Wednesdays, we’ve got several “ins”.  See everyone on the pitch at 6!

Come early if you can to help set up or toss the ball around.  The days are getting shorter, which means less rugby time

Who’s in for tomorrow (Wednesday)?  You should be in because A) we didn’t play on Monday, and B) It’s going to be perfect out.  Respond if you’re in!

Hey guys were just north of where we usually play. Still on the Whitehouse lawn. We’ve got tons of space!

Hey guys,

Given the anniversary of the March on Washington, security and crowds might overwhelm the Mall and prevent us from playing.  Apparently the procession was no trouble on Saturday, and hopefully it won’t be an issue today.  I have no way of knowing right now what the situation will be like so all I can say is that we head down and try to play.  I’ll assess and post a blog entry if we get kicked off though.  We might be able to change locations to a different spot on the mall, especially if softball games are cancelled.  With some luck there won’t be any issues. 

Hey guys,

Rugby’s on, but lookout for a blog post around 5:00.  If it’s raining more than lightly, I’ll have to cancel.  I think we’ll be fine though. 

Otherwise, it’s the usual Wednesday drill.  Meet at 15th and Constitution at 6.  For those who are willing and able, feel free to arrive closer to 5:30 or so.
