Message
from the Coaches:
1. Tournament 27th April - Aberdeen Report.
Dear all
A quick report on behalf of Joe, Steve and myself.
What a great finish to the season!! Played 3, won 3 including a clear 3 -1 victory against Football Club who fielded most of their first team.
Scores were: 4 - 1 v Discovery Bay Pirates, 8 - 0 v. the Monkeys, 3 - 1 against Football Club.
Without singling out individuals, the whole team played a blinder - tackling, sealing and running forward. A few things to work on as always but the final game against FC was a great climax - FC were never really in the game because we tackled, fought and competed throughout the whole game and never game them a chance to get going other than one breakout try. It was great to see a season's hard work coming togther in one great game!! Well done to all of the kids and thanks to the parents for bringing them along.
See you all next season (Colin, can we start training next week??!!).
Regards, Bob.
2. Next Year
We had 65 registered players this year and hope to have more next year. However we need volunteers to help assist throughout the season and I am looking for Coaches. So if you are interested or would like to give it a go let me know. Coaches are required to undertake the IRB Coaching Course which is run in Hong Kong. It is a fantastic course and very professionally done. You can do this during the season and the commitment required for the course is not significant compared to the rewards you receive from doing it.
Rgds
Colin
