Chambray Updateà As usual, they are fit, young and don’t give up, but thankfully we are crafty, skilled, and robust. A well contested game last night with a 3 to 2 try victory for the NOBs with support from some GITS. As Denis highlighted last night the pitch was outstanding, lush and game ready (translated - undersized, the occasional patch of grass, sticks and stones). The quality of the field notwithstanding, both teams were respectful of the poor conditions and took it all in stride. From the NOBs, it was a game where we started well, lost our focus in the middle, but found it again in the end to get the winning try. I do recall Jason Currie scored the NOBs first try with a fine seconded effort, but I did not note who got the other two, so I will guess it was the backs! Thank you to all those that played and participated in the game. Special thanks to Jason, Mike and James (GITS) who rounded out the team. Back at the mess (translated – old 1920’s mansion house) Chambray were great hosts with food and drink. I must say the showers and bar is definitely a step up from the usual. Player of the match was Tommy, with honourable mention to Carrie. In the fall we will be facing a new crop of Chambray players! As we get older, they stay the same age…
Silverbacks – We want to get a head count for Sunday June 5 (Mohawk Sports Park, Field #1, 1:00 KO). I confirmed a few players yesterday. Please respond to this email “YES” if you are available.
Thanks
Phil
