Christmas Fun Game

Well done to all the dads and coaches (and a couple of ringers) who turned out to give the girls a lesson in how to play rugby using a zimmer frame and walking sticks.

Despite the obvious help from the referee who tried his hardest to give the girls a victory, the old gits won CONVINCINGLY HA HA.
With the Old gits having taken a commanding half time lead the referee decided that in the 2nd half he would even things up and gave out numerous yellow cards for trivial offences such as questioning his parentage or tackling girls off the ball and yours truly spent much of the 2nd half along with Mark in the sin bin with 7 yellow cards between the two of us.

Twas a good game and great fun and well done to all who turned out.

The Xmas draw took place to win the 2 fantastic Benefit Cosmetics hampers kindly donated by Ian, Gail and all the girls at Benefit in Chelmsford.
Thanks to all those girls/coaches parents who sold tickets, all the monies raised will go towards the tour kit for the Easter tour.

Prize winners of the hampers

Thanks to all and have a great Xmas and see you all on the 4th Jan for the home game with Saracens.
