Summer Tournament !!!!

Guys,

I need to know who intends on playing in the 7’s tournaments throughout the south this summer. We have had between 15-20 different people show up at various times and I need to make sure that we have enough interested each weekend to field a side. The cost will be between $15-$20 dollars per tournament depending on the number of people we have intending to play.

The First tournament will be next weekend in Atlanta.

Also the Cape Fear tournament is on July 5th and everyone but Ian would know that our independence day is the day before. So as of right now I do not plan on fielding a team to this tournament, however if you would like to go and play contact your fellow players and myself to determine if you would have enough players to participate.

UGA Rugby looking for Chattanooga favor

Hey Chattanooga guys,

My name's Doug Porter and I'm the coach at U of Georgia. We have a
player who lives in or near Chattanooga who wants to try out for the
South Collegiate All Stars which is this Wednesday through Sunday in
Atlanta (Marietta, I believe at Life University).

Unfortunately he doesn't have transportation.

Since I believe some of you are at UTC I was hoping someone from UTC
would be going down to the tryouts and could give our guy a ride.

If you can, or have any ideas on this, please call me, 706-742-2738 or
email me doug@lynxdgs.com (and please make sure the word Rugby is in
there somewhere so it gets past my spam filters).

cheers,

doug

Word From Coach

Guys,

My son's soccer team has been training at D1 on Wednesday nights. A few weeks ago they started to offer it to the parents as well. I have been taking part, and these guys do a pretty good job of working to the level of the group. Now Summer is coming our numbers are dropping and we need some people to join us to keep up the sessions. We are starting a new 6 week session on Wednesday next week. Because of the size of the group, the cost is $10 per person, per session, which is a huge reduction on the usual price of working at D1, especially is you were to go as an individual. Please drop me a line to let me know if you are interested in joining our group. It's only an hour from 6:30pm, but it's fun, and as good as you make it. Again, tell me if you're interested so I can let them know the numbers and then they can better plan the session.

Cheers,

Jared.

Summer 7's

Just a reminder to everyone, we have started practicing for 7's. Whether you intend to play in any tournaments or not, it's a great way to get/stay in shape. It will also make the Fall season feel a lot easier if you plan on playing 15's. Even if you're not that serious about playing, get out here and practice and have some fun. We meet at 7pm at the field in Rossville every Tuesday and Thursday. Get your butts out there.

Jared.
