Perfect weekend for rugby

20130427_104322

Hey all,

The above pic shows a perfect day–expect one just like that this Saturday.  72 and sunny with low humidity.  Can’t ask for better conditions.  Let’s get out there and play some rugby!

You know the drill:  Respond with “I smoke while playing rugby” or “I have weak lungs and need ‘fresh’ air”.  Or you can just say “I’m in”  or “I’m out”…

Good to go for Saturday the 11th!

Hey Guys,

It looks like we’ve got numbers (at least 10) for Saturday.  It’s going to be slippery out there so wear your boots if you’ve got ’em.  See you all at the Mall at 10 am!

PS  Check the blog tomorrow morning just in case.  Light rain should be Okay to play in, but anything more, or if there are thunder storms, I’ll have to cancel.

Hey Guys,

Not sure if everyone has heard, but the authorities (cops) informed us at the end of last Saturday’s game that we cannot continue to play at the Adams Morgan field until we have our permit.  We’re awaiting our long overdue paperwork from the parks department so we can play in Ads Mo officially.  In the mean time, we’ll have to return to our old stomping ground at the Mall.  We’re located right next to (east of) 17th Street, and south of Constitution–very close to the Washington Monument.  You can copy these coordinates on Google Maps for a more precise location  38.891246, -77.03844.  Now I just need to know who’s in for 10 a.m. this Saturday.  The weather’s going to be perfect.  Hard to say no. 

   

Who can make it for Saturday the 13th?

All,

The rugby gods have blessed us.  Saturday at 10am we’re looking at a perfect day for touch–60 degrees, an easy breeze, and rain-softened ground that won’t strain the knees (see what I did there).  That’s right, you can hold off on the farmers tan for at least another week before the blistering weather arrives (although, it’s 90 degrees today…).  Let me know if you’re in, or if you have lesser matters to attend to.  If you can bust a rhyme in your response, that’d obviously be ideal.
