Who Wants a Jersey??!

Posted on by

Hey Guys,

Let me know if you’re interested in getting a DC Touch Rugby jersey.  They’re perfect for scoring tries on the pitch and for writing memos in the office.  Who needs sleeves, amiright?  If you want a jersey respond to this post with your name and your size.  The price will be $20-$25.  I’ll collect money at rugby over the next week or so.

Naturally, if you’re playing in the tournament it would be nice to have a jersey.  We would look like a much more cohesive unit with everyone donning the blue and whites.  But, it’s not necessary.  The most important thing is that you sign up for the August 27th tournament! (See previous post for details.)

UPDATE: TOURNAMENT!

Hello esteemed touch rugby players!
I just wanted to forward along this update to you all so that we can begin the proper registration process for this upcoming touch rugby tournament. There is one major update: registration will now be done individually through the Eventbrite page below. I’ve already registered and it is pretty easy. You simply click on the link below in this post and then once on the page you click on the “Tickets” button.
The tickets (registration) is $7 and then there is a $1.34 processing fee so total cost is $8.34 per person. Remember there is also the option to donate to the Serge Betsen Academy in addition to your registration fee if you would like that option.
Finally, Victor is organizing for our team jerseys and he is planning to send around more information about the cost and process for ordering those soon.
*IMPORTANT*
Once you have completed your registration, please let me know by commenting on here or by sending me an email/text/carrier pigeon so that I can put you on our confirmed team list. Thanks!

Guys,

Thunderstorms are a decent possibility for tomorrow.  I’m going to make a decision around 8:00-8:30 in the morning about whether we’re going to play.  Keep on the lookout for a posting.

AND, sign up for the tournament!  We’re playing on Saturday Aug 27th in Virginia.  You can sign up by responding to Tuesday’s post about the tourney.  It’s going to be a good time plus there will be food.  Hard to pass up, so don’t!

TOURNAMENT!

Guys,

It’s getting hot and we’re going to do what little we can to beat the heat.  That means starting rugby a bit earlier at 9:00 a.m.  For all those who are mildly annoyed by the modest time change heed the immortal words of my former rugby coach Tony Brown:  “Stop whining.”

See everyone at 9:00 at 15th and Independence.  Bring a ball.  Bring cones.

Newbies always welcome.
