Hi Craig:

Wayne passed away today at home after a struggle with cancer. Wayne was a long time NOB player who continued his membership for years after he stop playing. He was the backbone of the Niagara club for decades and was the driving force and generous supporter of the club's recent relocation from Pt. Colborne  to Niagara Falls Here's a link to the funeral arrangements including visitation hours ( Monday November 16, 2015, between 2 pm and 4 pm and 7 pm to 9 pm) and a celebration of his life (Cairn Croft, Best Western Hotel, 6400 Lundy’s Lane, Niagara Falls, Ontario from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. on Sunday November 22, 2015):

Dear Craig, sad news from Peterborough that our dear old friend and piper
has passed away last night from cancer.  He was in his eighties and was a good
friend to the Nobs, as you know. He piped at many Robbie Burns nights for the Nobs.
No other info at this time, but please pass on this message.

 More news from Rolf.  The domes are now in full swing, but monies are still owing.  The club is about to open the waiting list, so if you are already playing and have not paid, be warned.

 

Winter Touch is now every Sunday, we basically play in every type of weather.  Come on down and join the throng already playing.  Helps thwart the winter doldrums.  Da Thug

 

 

Morning Craig
 
Maybe we can do a slight prod this week in your weekly email.
  
Dome Subs are going well and we are STILL holding spaces
for a number of people who have made a VERBAL commitment.
 
HOWEVER after this week we will have to consider deferring to THE WAITING LIST
people who want to give us money.

NOBS WORLD NOVEMBER 6th. "That's it!"

Another season has come and gone for the NOBS RFC. Last Tuesday evening, we played our final fixture of the year, with the Staff College. Same story, younger, fitter, fast, but with the one exception, except for a few of them, lacking in rugby savvy.

NOBS WORLD NOVEMBER 3RD, STAFF COLLEGE AND Presidents Day - Nov 7th

 

Well, I guess you thought tonight’s game, under the lights, at 7pm, at the west end soccer pitch was our last game of the season.  You thought wrong.  Below is an email from Tim Morton, inviting all NOBS to participate in a game this coming Saturday.  It appears to be a friendly, but brother on brother always gets interesting.  It does look fun though. 

 

Tonight!  It is important this game gets underway on time, so be there early, dressed, warmed up and ready to go.  Not sure of what jerseys we are wearing, so bring both. 

 

The regular Tuesday night touch is also on in the dome.  Lots of food and drinks after in the club.  See you tonight, Da Thug

Presidents Day - Nov 7th

 

Boys, Presidents day is coming up quick. Need lots of bodies to ensure we have a great time. Try to make it out. Accept on teamer if you can.

The President’s Day match will be the first annual match held at the end of the season between two teams made up from our club.  There is a President's XV and a Captain's XV (chosen by club President and club Captain).  The winner of the match celebrates with champagne out of the PRESIDENT'S CUP - the loser gets to drink their own tears. Drink breaks are frequent (booze only allowed inside the club) Silly Hat is mandatory during the match  and No try scored shall count unless it is completed whilst wearing a silly hat' stealing hats mid game is recommended. 

We ask everyone shows up at the clubhouse around Noon where we can have a couple pre match bevys and Colin and Andy can sort out teams. After the game we will continue to drink and eventually head down town.. it’s going to be a good one boys. Any new players or old are welcome to come out for a run around. Make sure to do your best to get out for the match.
