Saturday 22nd March 2014

Details for the big day:

2-00pm All teams meet at Bob Deans Fields
2-25pm Referees brief on the new rules for 2014
2-30pm Games kick off (draw to follow)
4-00pm (approx) Games finish
4-01pm Beers and BBQ at the HSOB RFC Clubrooms

Teams confirmed: HSOB Keiths, Christchurch Canardlys, Sumner Sharks, Linwood Bollocks, Burnside
Possible: Hornby Div 3 Country


At this stage: 20 min "halves", 4 games per team of one half duration (draw will be done Saturday at 2pm)

Intent: This is a warm-up tournament. We all know each other, we are learning the new scrum rules and getting new players and combinations sorted - as well as helping recruitment.
So there are no competition points or sheep stations to win.
We enjoy and we have a good bbq and beer after.
Be good to the refs too - they are helping make the day awesome.

Social: Keiths are arranging a keg or equivalent for the aftermatch and we have a catering bbq sorted. We appreciate other teams supplementing the beers or the bbq as appropriate. Our bar is in the park.

Ayr street changing rooms will be open, but if a nice day, the fields will be good too (pending good weather like last year (fingers crossed). We have arranged rain currently to soften the fields but asked for warmth/sun for next Saturday. Refs and fields are booked.
