Just a reminder we’re on for tomorrow at 9:30.  See you guys there.

Okay, so it seems like there’s some interest in watching the games on Saturday and playing on Sunday, so let’s just do that.  For those not too embarrassed to be drinking at 9:00 AM (or for the marathoners that will just continue Friday night’s boozing) lets meet at Fado’s in Chinatown to watch UK get trounced by the Springboks (I believe the match begins at 9:30.  Also, there’s no particular reason why I’ve been hating on the Brits in these posts, but it feels right so I’m just going to continue riding that wave.  Eagles in 2015!!!)

For Sunday, let’s stick to a similar schedule.  Meet at 17th and Constitution at 9:30.  See ya’ll then.  I’ll try to send a reminder post on Saturday evening.

Hey Guys,

I’m considering putting touch on hold this Saturday due to the conflicting schedule of international rugby matches on TV. Many of us will want to watch the games instead of playing because it’s going to be VERY cold on Saturday morning, and because many of us love to see the UK get beat down by their counterparts in the Southern Hemisphere. Still, others may want to skip the live broadcasts and play. I’m not sure where preferences lie so let me know by responding to this post with one of the following options.

Option 1–Go to Fado’s, eat, drink and watch the international matches that begin at 9:30. We’ll decide there whether playing rugby on Sunday morning makes sense, or skip this week altogether and just play the following week.

Option 2–Skip watching the international matches and just play as we normally would.

Option 3–If possible, one of us records the matches to be watched later in the day or on Sunday, and we play on Saturday as we normally would.

Let me know what you all think.

Here’s the schedule of games on Sunday:
9:30am: England vs South Africa (Cover Charge: $20)
12:30pm: Italy vs Argentina
3pm: France vs Australia (Cover Charge: $20)
5pm: Wales vs Fiji

if you want to practice some skills and strategy, arrive at 9:00.

Bring a ball and cones. I don’t have them with me this week.

9:30 am. 17th and constitution as always.

17th and Constitution at 9:30.

AND, for those interested, please come at 9:00 am for a bit of skills and drills practice. There’s some talk about wanting to play the other local teams competitively, so if we can get a dedicated few, we can move things forward.

If you’re coming at 9:00, respond to this email to let me know.

Last, I’ve got someone’s black sweat pants. They say Jackson something on the side. They were left on the field a couple of weeks ago. I gathered them, and CLEANED them. You’re welcome… Let me know if they’re yours, otherwise, they’re going to Goodwill soon.

Hey Guys,

So I thought we might have one more Wednesday in us, but the combination of intermittent rain showers today and the 6:19 sunset doesn’t present the best rugby-playing conditions. The situation won’t improve going forward so no more Wednesday rugby this year. We should get our Wednesdays back around April.

Saturday’s looking perfect, though. There was some discussion about heading out a bit earlier for those who wanted to improve their skills and learn a bit of strategy to prepare for some potential competitive matches against the other local teams. If you’re interested, respond to this post. We’ll set something up, perhaps meet at 8:45 or 9:00 ahead of the regular meet up time of 9:30. I’ll be there for sure.

Should be ideal conditions tomorrow. See everyone out there at 9:30. I’ve got the cones.

Rain is iffy for the next few hours and the ground is certainly saturated so lets hold off for tonight.

See you guys on Saturday

Weather isn’t looking great guys. I’ll send out a blast around 4:30-5:00 and let everyone know whether we’re on.
