Hello to you all,

The President’s Club will be hosting a special luncheon for Round 1 (v Box Hill) on 24 April.   This will be a jersey presentation occasion involving juniors, club dignitaries, first XV players and other rugby personalities. We are keen to make this an enduring part of the social calendar.  To book you seat contact John Zarb on 0425 845 338.  Refer flyer below.

Under 14 State Team trails start the 2 May 2010 at Endeavour Hill Rugby Club.

Don’t forget the club needs a minimum of four participants in the upcoming referee courses.

Cheers,

John Rosenhain

The draw is not yet available but will be soon.

We’ll have a ‘Registration Meeting’ on Thursday 22nd April at 6.45pm at Orrong Park – note not at the club-rooms.

Everyone intending to play will need to register via the club website - club and ARU registration form. You will also need to be a paid-up member before you are able to play, so make sure you pay, again, via the club website.

Print a copy of the forms and bring them along next Thursday so that we can process them. If you can’t make the meeting, bring them along on the Saturday.

Hope to see as many of you as possible on Thursday night – can you please email (simon.webster@ato.gov.au) or call me (0407 833 308) if you’re not going to be at the meeting, but are intending to play on the Saturday.

Lets get dRowzy.
