Touch Rugby Draw for Friday 25th

Kia Ora all

Please click on the link to view the draw.

The under 7 Red Knights are actually the Oaklands Raiders (Oak Raiders). This is your team name from now on.

The Under 9 EAGLES are not down on the draw and have a bye this week. However there is a field available for you to have a practice. It would be a great idea to have a run around.

Playing tops

I will issue some sets tomorrow for the older students. When the new ones arrive the little ones will be kitted out. I will bring down some coloured mesh bibs for the Oaklands teams that are playing each other. For example the under 7 Sharks and Storm play each other and the Under 11 Undefeatables and Chiefs play each other.

Balls

I will being down some balls tomorrow. They will be named (Oakands School) and need to be returned to me after your game. The organisers will supply new teams with a touch ball soonish.

Kauri Athletics

The weather doesn't look too good at the moment, but we are doing a sunshine dance in anticipation of a fine day.

Given the current wet weather, the following applies:

[1] The organisers (Grant and Danny) will meet early tomorrow morning (6:30am).

*    If it has continued to rain overnight and the forecast is for rain throughout the day - we will make the decision to postpone the event to FRIDAY.

* If the rain has stopped and it looks to be clearing up and the forecast is for sun, we will make a decision as to whether we will begin a little later eg 10:00am.

[2] Any decision will be put on this blog by 7:45am

[3] We will then endeavour to place a message on the school answer phone system, once we learn how to do it.

Please don't assume that it will be off if it is a little wet. Unless notified students should come prepared for a day of athletics.

Cheers
Grant

Touch Rugby 2013/4

Kia Ora all

Click on the link below to view the most up to date version of the team lists for touch rugby.

Presently there are 15 teams. We still need to fill a few spaces, with girls in the under 7 section, but I reckon we will get there.

The team lists are not set in stone as there may be some changes, as I have no doubt made some errors / omissions etc.

More information will come out soon regarding the first game, payment of the $20 etc.

Cheers
Grant
