Usually I’d be interested but I’m up in Collingwood with a bunch of buddies.

We are thinking about adding an old boys 15s mini tournament to our Niagara 7s in the fall.

We are doing a demonstration game this year on Sat, Nov 8 with the Niagara Legends & the Old Gits from Toronto if you or anyone else is interested?

I have heard from a few confirming they are available for October 20 @11:00 KO in Buffalo - but not enough to make up a side.  So if you have been slow to respond, the time is now.  This is not just a Nobs game, but a classic Canada vs USA game! Ok, over dramatic but still will be good fun.

 

So if there are GITS or Hamilton Players looking for a game on the 20th, let me know by October 12th.  Share the email with others.

Thanks

NOBS NEWS: REMINDER Sunday Touch this week 10:00 (sharp) Pine Glen Facility (Dundas /3rd)

I just want to confirm that Sunday touch for November is at the Pine Glen Facility (Dundas and 3rd Line) starting at 10:00 (sharp) for $10/session.  We only have this for four Sundays, then we will be back to our 1:00 outdoors.   I know change is difficult! but need to try something new every once in a while.  There will not be outdoor touch @ 1:00.

I am not aware of what change facilities they have, so I would assume none at this point. For those that think this is early, you do have the hour change this weekend to take advantage of. 

Thanks
