Gowerton (AWAY) 19/09/10

A 3 way round robin of matches today with Penclawdd and Dunvant was a great success enabling everyone to have plenty of time and opportunity to get stuck in.

Next week it's our old friend Gowerton (AWAY).

Lougher & Neath played and Penclawdd 'Donkeys' next up

A fantastic job was done by Phil and Lee today (no doubt ably assisted by our ever growing coaching team) in satisfying our equally ever expanding and sizeable squad by playing a triangular set of matches with Lougher and Neath. Training will be 5pm at Underhill again this week with Penclawydd hosted at Bishopston on Sunday 12th - 10.30am. Back to the Rugby Club for hot dogs at 12pm.

A massive thank you also to Sam Ward-Jones and Tracy Caplin who along with Tracy Price (from the Predators) faced the trials and tribulations of the Mumbles RFC kitchen. We hope to have catering volunteers from the Wildcats next week when we host Penclawdd at the rugby club(12pm), but there will be plenty of further opportunity through the remainder of the season for other Vikings parents to put up their hands and be counted in the kitchen, so please don't be shy - our hot dogs need you!

WANTED - volunteers required for the new seasons catering rota.

Would the first willing parents who are back to the club please empty a tin of 50 (club supplied) hot dogs into a pan to warm. If you feel you also have the necessarily skills and experience to purchase and cut open a few bread rolls then please put yourself forward to me for entry on our rota (see page to the right of blog).

If those named on the rota can please purchase bread rolls themselves in advance, then all monies can be refunded on presentation of a receipt. Usually 48 rolls will feed our players, opposition (but please double check in each instance since we may share the rota with other teams).

September 3rd & 5th

Friday 3rd Sept - Training 5pm with Phil 'Teach' Jones at Underhill.

We then host Lougher RFC at Bishopston School on Sunday 5th Sept' - meet in time to kit up and sort out teams for a 10.30 k.o. Back to the Rugby Club for hot dogs at 12pm.

Volunteers are needed again this season to purchase the bread rolls and warm up the club supplied hot dogs. I can reimburse the cost of the rolls on presentation of a receipt.
