Highlights from last night's player's meeting:
- Practice will be 8/16, 8/21, & 8/23 from 6-8 at Shenataha Creek Park on Eastline Road in Ballston Spa in preparation for the eight team Saratoga Invitational Rugby Tournament on 8/25 at Skidmore.
- Practice for the fall season will begin on 8/28 in preparation for our first home match in the club's NERFU D-IV history against Mt. Washington on 9/1.
- Dues for the Fall Season are now set at $70 and are payable to T-Rex by 9/15.
- Mick O'Dalaigh is returning as head coach this fall.
- We will have a volunteer event for our bye weekend (9/15).
- Vote for fall captains will take place on 8/28. Anyone interested in the job needs to e-mail Paco.
- Team By-Laws have been adopted by the officers. Every player needs to sign them before he can step on the field for the fall.
- A jacket order is being placed for players who have completed two full seasons with the club.
- Recruiting efforts are on-going. Do your best to spread the word about Saratoga Rugby. What keeps us from being able to play D-III is a legitimate B-Side and we currently don't have enough players on a regular basis to field one.
- Mike Kotary has replaced Alex Eves as the P.O.C. for Malta and Shenantaha Creek Park as Eves is moving to Chicago.
- Anyone interested in filling the role of equipment manager, please contact Paco as Nick DeFilippo's college class schedule prevents him from attending training sessions on time for the fall.
