Wednesday night touch rugby! : Thu Mar 04, 2010 3:05 pm  

8pm til 9pm behind the KC.

Great bunch of lads comming weekly now. Its just for fun so fitness levels are a tad varied. Gotta say though.......I lasted the full hour last night and felt like I could've don a bit more too I lasted longer than Wayne Jackson (ex KR) scored two trys and got flattened by Chico Jackson (its touch Chico ffs LOL). That was actually an honour though. Kev Flanagan (Flash's lad) always has a good run out too....He has his dads flair...no question

If anyone fancies a go.....again, just for fun and to get fit, just turn up......pay £3.50 (we have to pay for the pitch......any extra goes to 'Life For A Kid' ). and join in!

The biggest subs bench in history!!!!!!!!!!!!

Seriously though.......When this crap weather breaks, we will probably take our 'operation' onto west park...or somewhere like. We will still charge to play....It is afterall a charity we run as well. But that way, we can play a bit longer too (if we are up to it ). Its great fun, getting fit and playing alongside a few ex-pro's. If more than we need turn up....erm.....we'll cross that bridge. I'm sure Dean Hoggard has a 'plan' ?????

I could quite fancy it myself, but at you already have 18-20 and 4 or 5 more have expressed an interest, it might already be getting to saturation point. No point in loads turning up and there being no room to move.

like Chewie says, would cross that if it came to it but could get a bigger pitch (currently only usea half pitch)

And there will always be people missing each week with work etc

It's a pity that I live away from Hull, I would have been well up for this. Though I haven't really played much rugby in the past, mainly in PE, and I missed a lot of that due to broken bones (I'm well known for my lack of spacial awareness).

I know it's open to pretty much all ages (16+ for safety, I presume), but what's the average age that you have going?

Ha, I'd feel a bit out of place, then, no offence intended.
