Sunday 24th January

We are hosting Gowerton RFC at Bishopston. Meet at 10.30am with KO at 11.00am. Hot dogs at Rugby Club 12.00-12.30pm.

Sunday 17th January 2010

Training is at Underhill Park this week (10.30am) with hot dogs at the Rugby Club afterwards (12pm - 12.30pm).

(If you are double checking this morning it is confirmed as on.)

It off!

Unfortunately the early January tropical heatwave that was heading to Morriston RFC is now not heading there.

Sadly, once again, there will be no rugby this Sunday.

I'd get the sledge out this weekend

With current arctic conditions forecast to continue this weekend it seems highly unlikely that any rugby will be playable. Check the blog again Friday night though, as there is an outside possibility that Morriston might buck the national trend and be hit by a freak tropical warm front to confirm that an away game is on.

2009 Review

Well done and a big thank you to everyone who entered into the spirit of the Xmas funday, players and supporters alike. Mr Gregg Fabb wins the fancy dress 1st prize in his red longjohns, although Scott Caplin's hat and Phil Jones' modern dance outfit were a close second and third. I think the Parents proved to be testing opponents, but on the day they weren't quite up to the high standard of the Players.

We will have a break this coming weekend (27/12/09)to enjoy the festivities, but we aim to rejoin again on 03/01/10 to play away at Waunarlwydd. Details on times and directions will follow on the blog next week, but for now I'd like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. I have some Kooga Vortex MRFC training tops for those that couldn't make it on the day. I can either distibute them in the New Year, or if you would prefer you can contact me this week if you want to give them out for Xmas.

2009 has proved a mixed bag with great weather and rugby on offer through September and October, but with November a bit if a damp squib to say the least. The Players individual skills are really beginning to develop, but more importantly in my book, they all seem to be enjoying it and getting to know each other more as a team, on and off the pitch, which will pay great dividend in the future. Thank you to all of you who have contributed to the building of the team through the year, be it supporting in the cold and rain, collecting tags and carrying bags, fundraising, assisting with the coaching, or helping on the catering front. Your continued contributions through 2010 will again be highly valued and will no doubt assist in keeping the team and club something to be very proud to be a part of.
