NOBS - President's Message

From your Beloved Club President:

 

A general call to NOBS past, present, and future. This Friday April 29 7:00 p.m. we launch our 2016 season with our first ever Club Night.

 

We have these highlights for the evening:

1. Wine and cheese pairing hosted by our very own Cristina Flores

2. Membership special- every one who pays their dues that night (or has already paid) gets a free pint. YES you read right, a FREE pint!

3. All spouses/significant others of a paid up member gets an automatic free Social membership!

4. All who wear a rugby tie (or purchase a NOBS tie at the door) will receive a further free pint from your Beloved President!!!!!!

 

And don't forget our kickoff to the 2016 Touch and Contact seasons: noon Sunday May 1 for Touch; and 1:00 p.m. May 1 for Contact. We ask all players to arrive 1/2 hour before the relevant time so we can be organized and ready to go on time.

 

A feast of food and beverages in the clubhouse follows on Sunday, with all family invited to attend.

 

Looking forward to seeing everyone Friday and Sunday.

 

Cheers

 

Chuck Schandl

NOBS News - GAME ON!

GAME ON!  Sunday May 1st is the Season Opener.  

At 1:00 there are 4-teams squaring off at Sherwood Park - GITS, Bruce County, Hamilton and NOBS. Festival Coverage will be in place so if you have not registered for Contact you will be covered.  Doesn’t get better than this to start the season!  We ask that you show up ready to go for 1:00, with four teams we want to get things going on time (a strange concept for masters rugby!).  

There will be TOUCH starting at 12:00, bring a friend.  Touch is also a good warmup for the 1:00 game. 

As a reminder, On Friday April 29 we have a Membership /Pub Night at the club house.  This event is open to ALL, so bring your significant other or a friend.  If you are paid up, still drop by.  Paying your annual fees ($100 – Contact, Touch; $25 Social) will get you a free pint.  We encourage the wearing of club ties to show your colours.

 

A few more house keeping matters:

• Attached is the Season Schedule (as of April 14), so you can plan ahead.  
• Touch starts outside next week on Tuesday and Thursday (7:00 start).

Look forward to seeing you there……Cheers.

CALLING ALL NOBs - Club House Clean up

All, Tomorrow (Sunday) we are planning to do a Club House clean up to make everything ship shape for next week.  So channel your inner Molly Maid and give use a few hours of your time.  We are starting at 11:00 and will be done in time for touch.  So consider it a warm up (wax on – wax off).  Bring a bucket some rags/cloths and we will have the eco friendly cleaners.  

One last note, please check your email in the morning.  If there is any change in the time I will put out another email.  No news means we are good to go.

Your help and commitment is appreciated. 

Thanks

Phil

Return of the BURLINGTON BERTIES – Please distribute to the NOBS membership

 

With the great success of hosting an exhibition 3^rd XV team in 2015, the Centaurs have decided to revitalize the BERTIES to compete competitively in the NRU B Division.

 

The BERTIES, Burlington Experienced Rugby Team in The Extremist, were an integral part of the Burlington Centaurs and the NOBS rugby organizations. It is a great pleasure to bring this team back to its original luster to the rugby pitch. (See the original news article from the archives re: BERTIES attached)

 

Being an ‘experienced’ Rugby Team within the NOBS/Centaurs organization it is understood that life and work commitments may come into play during the rugby season and throughout the work week but when available let it be known once again that SATURDAY IS A RUGBY DAY!

 

There is no mandatory attendance to practice required to be eligible to play with the Burlington Berties. Only that you make your availability known to the head coach Jon Goldie -  jonathan.goldie@hotmail.com

 

The BERTIES are a great opportunity for NOBS, alumni players and rugby players new to the club to come together on the field as one. “Friends through Rugby, Friends through Life”

 

See below for additional registration details.
