What a fabulous day at Twin Elm for the U14, U16 and U18 teams to host the NDG Dragons Rugby from Montreal. It was wonderful seeing so many faces back from winter hibernation and ready for the season ahead. Special thanks goes to Melissa Fitzgerald for her awesome organising of the BBQ and to the band of mighty volunteers, it is what makes the club so special.
On Friday evening we saw representatives in both the EORU U19 men and women playing their 3rd interbranch game against TRU. On Saturday, a number of our senior men represented EORU as they travelled to Halifax for the away game against the Privateers. It is great to see the club represented at this level.
Canada vs England Ticket update
I received an email from Rugby Canada last week asking the club to sign up for group tickets for the game so I am hoping to receive a link from them this week and will share as soon as I have it.
