Pitch a Tent 7's


Chattanooga Rugby Presents the

7th Annual Pitch A Tent 7's Tournament

July 25-27, 2008

With only a few weeks to go until the early registration period ends, the
CRFC wanted to remind everyonea about the 6th Annual Pitch A Tent 7's
Tournament in Chattanooga, TN on July 27-29, 2007. This year's tourney will
host a men's & women's social division with a maximum of 28 teams allowed
entry, so make sure to get your registration fees in early. As of now, we
have a decent amount of teams paid in full but the rush will come
quickly...so make sure to remember that we will not hold a spot for teams
that reply with emails, only your tourney payment will reserve your spot!

As stated in the first flyer, trophies & prizes will be awarded to the
placers, as well as, for team & personal efforts, a welcome social Friday
night, the main social Saturday night, camping, showers, swimming,
whitewater rafting, boat races, beer pong, flip cup, etc. We know you won't
want to miss out!

The big news since the last flyer is that the tournament committee has
realized that the 16 kegs we got last year just won't cut it anymore...so we've
made the decision to up the total to 24!!! We ran out last year and we knew
that it couldn't happen two years in a row....so hopefully the 8 extra kegs
will keep our thirst quenched throughout the entire weekend!!!

And like always, Chattanooga RFC's own Voodoo Lounge will once again be open
& ready Saturday night serving a FREE liquor bar. Normally, the Voodoo
Lounge opens around 7:00 pm and pours till the wee hours of the morning. In
the past we could get away with saying "all-u-can-drink"....but with the
amount of power drinkers that showed up last year, we ran out at 11:00
pm....so who knows this year!! All we can say is that you won't find
another social tourney with this much to offer!!! We promise you a great
time!!!

Listed below is all the information contained in the first flyer sent out
with a few extras added:

Please Note this April 2, 2008. The Chattanooga Rugby Team will be figuring out the information for the Pitch Sevens.Please Check often and please check the Nooga Blog for any updates.Thank you

Please Contact Peter L. Steyn - petersteyn@msn.com

If you have any questions about the Pitch Tent Sevens.

Two Messages from Coach

Team,

Hopefully I captured everybody on e-mail who wrote their addresses down for me this evening.
I'm hoping to see a boost in numbers again on Thursday. We have a cold week forecast for us, and despite the prospect of snow, yes SNOW! I expect to see everyone ready to go on Thursday. Actually the snow should be gone by Thursday.
Three things to consider this week:

1) CIPP registration. As I write this e-mail, only 3 people have CIPPed and two of those (well one anyway) are non-playing members. Caleb Hodnett was first - great job. Again, here is the link:
https://register.usarugby.org/rugby/DesktopDefault.aspx

2) Dues ($50.00). Please see the note I forwarded yesterday from Pete. We need the money. As with CIPP registration if you haven't paid it, you can't play. If you are new to the team this Spring, you are under no obligation to pay it. However, donations are gratefully accepted.

3) Nashville. I have not yet received information on times etc. from those guys, but I highly recommend that you all go. It will be an extremely beneficial experience. Like I have said before, we are not ready to play a game yet, and this would be one more step closer to being ready.

There are more things to consider, but I figured I'd be lucky if you retained three!!! If you have any questions, let me know either by e-mail or feel free to call. My number is listed below.

See you Thursday,

Coach.
(423) 240-9968

--------------------------------------------------------

Team,

Some bad news tonight. We had about 5 cars broken into while we were at practice this evening. There was some damage to cars, and some significant items were taken. The police did arrive shortly after we noticed the problem and had called them. From this point on, I will ask that any players who are currently not able to practice through injury (or whatever) please attend practice so that we can have someone in the vicinity of the parking lot at all times to keep an eye on the cars. I hate to resort to this, but we have no choice. I think that this must have happened when we moved to the middle of the field, and were far enough away for them to do this without us hearing. These are kids we are talking about, not hardened criminals, and a presence should be enough to keep things safe. I would also encourage you to keep valuables to a minimum in your cars, and perhaps put items in your kit bag if you have to have them with you.
In the mean time, we are investigating alternative practice facilities. This really sucks and I'm extremely sorry for those who were affected.

Coach.
