The schedule for Saturday is listed below.  Our second game will likely be at 1 or 2 p.m. The second half of the schedule has not yet been posted.

Like last year, I would like to have 2 tents that we can set up to help protect from sun/rain or what every mother nature throws at us.

Rugby Happenings Week of April 6

I hope everyone has recovered from spring break. There is a lot of information in this email and as always I will post it at the blog if you need to refer to it in the future.

Practice

Wednesday April 7^th we will be practicing at ARBUCKLE Park on the field and will have the pizza fundraiser information to hand out after practice. Thursday practice will be back at Williams Park.

Games for this weekend

I will be announcing the rosters for this weekend’s game on Thursday at practice.

B-Side Only – Will be playing at North Central on Saturday April 10^th . I am waiting on a time confirmation and will post that as soon as I have it.

A-Side Only – Will be playing Columbus at 2 p.m. at Home (Arbuckle Park). The team needs to be at the fields at 1 p.m. ready to start warmups.

As a reminder when I set the lineups it is only for the game ahead. A player is not guaranteed a starting position for every game. The coaches take several things into account when setting the lineups. Some players will only play A-side, some players will only play B-side and some players will move up and down as the season progresses.

The rest of our schedule is posted at:

Pictures

Will be Monday April 12 at 430 p.m.  The girls will need to wear their rugby shorts and their blue socks. We will start practice right after pictures are taken. Attached is the order form. Pictures need to be paid for on Monday April 12.

Pizza Fundraiser

As the rugby program continues to grow as to do the opportunities to play in tournaments and the need for supplies. To help curb raising dues or asking for additional monies we are trying to raise as much funds as possible. Below is a break down of the pizza fundraiser. From what I hear these pizzas are pretty good.

* Wed April 7 at 6:30 pm - pass out information to team and sample pizzas - practice will be held at Arbuckle Park

 * Mon April 19 at practice - pizza orders and money due    * Wed April 21 by 10 am - order is given to Larry

 * Saturday April 24 at 10 am - Make pizzas at Calvery United Methodist church (in fellowship hall) across from Kohls every player (or a family member) must help make pizza's

All pizzas must be taken on the 24 day,  there is no way to store pizzas

If 50 players sold 10 pizzas each (500) the team would make $2700. If 50 players sold 12 pizzas each (600) the team would make $3500. This is a great opportunity to make some money for the club.

Hooded Sweatshirts/T-shirts

I have attached an order form for hooded sweatshirts. The sweatshirts will be the same color as the T-shirts. The cost is $28 and is due at the time of the order. If you do not pre-pay for the sweatshirts we cannot take your order form. Also if you would like to order a T-shirt that information is included on the form. For those of you who ordered T-shirts late they will be coming in when the sweatshirts arrive.

Rugby Happenings for March 22nd

Sorry for the delay in communication this week I was waiting on confirmation for a couple of things from the Lawrence coach before I sent out this email.

We play our first league match on Thursday March 25^th at Lawrence. Kick off is scheduled for 6 p.m. There will only be one game on Thursday and it will be an A-side match. I will be trying something different for this season and instead of requiring everyone to attend, it is only the A-side that will need to be there in uniform to warm up and participate in the match. I encourage the all players to attend the game and cheer on their teammates but only the A-side players designated for this game will be dressed to play. During each league match I am only able to roster 22 girls, so as much as I would love to sub freely there are certain rules I must follow.  And as a reminder the A-side lineup can change for each game and a player is not guaranteed to always play A side. Some players will play A side, some will play B side and some may play A side one game and B side the next and vice versa.

I am going to announce the A-side lineup early but it is still important for everyone to attend practice.
