We made the newspaper!

We made the newspaper!

http://www.mainstreetnewssports.com/archives/530-Mill-Creek-Rugby-loses-to-Starrs-Mill.html

If you search there for 'rugby' it is the third article we have had. Patrick is also developing media relations with other local newspapers in his capacity as Media relations Officer. It helps when his sister is the photographer!

Some updates:

Player health: I would like an update on Trevor and his neck if someone has details please.

Shirts: I am missing 6 and 7. Prime suspects are Nick, Ben, Trevor and Jansen. Please sort through your stuff and look - they were not left at the field. reemember these are borrowed shirts and we ned to give them back at some stage - All of them!

Practice:

Tuesday and Wednesday of this week - 6:00 at Rabbitt Hill. Since you all know the physical that is required to play this game, we are now goiung to move into strategy and tactics.

Game Next week:

We are more local. We will be playing at Brrokwoods field at 327 Arcado RD Lilburn, GA 30047. At the moment, I do not have date and time (or opposition!) things are moving ihn the schedule as i try and get you matched to teams more our equal,

Sunday's game further thoughts:

It was good to hear that you are not too down on yourselves. 5 games were played on Sunday, and two teams did not score at all! Oconee played it's first season without ever scorong. It stinks to loose, all of us on the coaching team are very aware of that. Two coaches have e-mailed me about how much better we were this week than last - bear in mind we had a number of new bodies helping us out.

We rain straighter, we tackled better, we kicked better. We will work on lineout and scrums and getting a defensive scheme that can adjust. This is starting to look pretty decent for a team that is just 2 hours old!

See you at practice this week.
