Hi all,

 

It was a pretty good week of practice...I wish we were going into a match tomorrow, but we're not.  UMBC scheduled a friendly with another team, so that match goes to October 25th.

 

Sam spent a lot of time and made a lot of calls to get something scheduled for tomorrow (thanks Sam!), but there were no takers (and we were trying up until practice yesterday).

 

Soooooooo....we are running with the Severn River Women's team at 8:30 AM down in Severna Park.  I'd encourage you to make the trip down...the one key thing we're lacking is the flow of play, and that's what they (and we) will be working on tomorrow.

 

Practice will run from 8:30 (sharp!!!!) to 10.  Then, Calvert Hall H.S. Rugby will be using the field.  At 1PM, there is a men's match between Severn River and Rocky Gorge....two bitter rivals.  It will be a fast, hard-hitting game with a LOT of action.

 

The Severn Women are BBQing down there during the men's game, so you're welcome to swing out after practice and grab what you want to grill/snack on.

 

If you need a ride down, I'm pretty sure Jackie and Sumpter said they were making the trip down....so get a hold of them.

 

Directions are at www.severnriverrugby.org if you need them.

 

You will learn a lot working with the Severn Women, and by watching the men's match.  I know it's an early start, but should be a fun day in some nice weather.

 

Next week we start gearing up for 5 straight matches....get ready.
