The Saturday fields aren’t filled with softball players just yet so let’s meet there.
If we discover softball has started, we’ll just head over to the 15th and Constitution field where we would normally play on Wednesdays.
See everyone out there.
Tomorrow is the annual kite festival so our field might be bombarded by “happy families”. I’m not sure though. It’s going to be pretty chilly in the morning so we may have the space to ourselves.
Let’s meet at 17th and Constitution at 9:30. If you arrive and no one is there by 9:40 or so, then head over two blocks to 15th and Constitution (our Wednesday field) to see if we’ve migrated over. That space should be free for us to play on, and it should suffice for our group tomorrow, which looks like its going to be on the smaller side.
See everyone out there.
Hey guys,
The conditions won’t be ideal tomorrow–muddy and very cold. Given light attendance the past few outings, I want to make sure that we have sufficient numbers to justify play. So let me know if you’re in by responding to this post. If we can get 8-10, we’ll be on.
We would play at 9:30 AM on the Saturday field: 17th and Constitution.
Hey Guys,
Come out to 15th and Constitution for the first Wednesday rugby session for 2015. I’m not sure whether softball has started up, but if they haven’t, we’ll head down to 17th and Constitution (our Saturday field) where we can have a proper-sized field.
We start at 6:00. See everyone there!
Tomorrow. 9:30. 17th and Constitution.
Too little interest for a game today. Not too many replies to the blog post, and a couple confirmed texts by others who couldn’t attend. It was an early try for Wednesday. Expect that we’ll be playing next week.
Friday’s rain is going to make playing on Saturday a little muddy, but unless its a complete mess, rugby will be on. I’ll reach out later this week.
Hey Guys,
Annoyingly, cold weather is approaching to ruin the much-desired beginning of Spring. Temps tomorrow are going to be in the low 40’s. That’s not the worst, but for a Wednesday, it’s irritating. Still, it’s been forever since we played so I want to take a poll to gauge interest for tomorrow.
If you want to play, let me know. We’d be at the same Wednesday “field” as last year. Nothing better (i.e. something unoccupied, good quality, free, and easily accessible for most people) has materialized yet.
So yeah, let me know if you’re in. Otherwise, we’ll shoot for Saturday which looks like its 100% on.
As a consolation the 6 Nations Championship will be televised this morning at 10:30, and there’s a 1:00 o’clock game as well. RiRa in Georgetown is playing both with no cover charge. James Hoban’s is doing both too, I’m sure, but they have a $20 cover charge, which provides $20 worth of food and drinks.
The early forecast for next week looks good for Saturday rugby.
Also, Wednesday rugby is going to start again soon. I think the 25th makes sense to start up, but if there’s a lot of enthusiasm, maybe this week makes sense. I’m hunting for an alternative field, but in the mean time, the old spot will suffice.
Hey Guys,
The forthcoming rain is putting a damper on our plans to head out and play rugby tomorrow morning. I know we’re all desperate to play–it’s been a month since we’ve been out there. But it’s going to be a tough call if the rain is as consistent as forecasts predict.
I’ll make a determination tomorrow morning at around 8:30. Hopefully it won’t be raining then, and hopefully the ground won’t be too soaked. Be on the lookout for my posting.
