Support the Wounded Lions 500

5/2/2020

Strive is about to hit the road again on two wheels to support Doddie Weir and also Tom Smith. Both rugby legends who represented Scotland and the Lions have been affected by terrible terminal illnesses.

So to show our support for them Willie Tulloch, Garry Coltherd and Leon De Jager will be joining another Scotland and Lions great, Rob Wainwright on the last leg of his cycle from Twickenham to Murrayfield to deliver the match ball for the Calcutta rugby match between Scotland and England on 8th February.

Willie, Garry and Leon will set off with Rob from Newcastle at 12:00am in the morning to cycle the last 100 miles, reaching Murrayfield with the ball at 12:30pm - just in time for the game!


The money raised is being split equally between the My Name’5 Doddie Foundation for Doddie and 40tude for Tom.
We would be delighted if you found get behind the guys and make a donation at the link below. Also if you’re in Edinburgh you might want to drop past Murrayfield early to welcome them home.

Please share this far and wide to get as many people as possible behind these great causes.

Thank you

Match Report | Glenrothes v Orkney 1-2-20

5/2/2020

 
Tennent's Caledonia Region League Division 1
Glenrothes - Saturday 2nd February 2020
Glenrothes RFC 5, Orkney RFC 28


Orkney travelled south for their latest Tennent’s Caledonia Regional league 1 fixture by Loganair flight on the morning of Saturday 1st February 2020. The usual ferry travel on Friday night being ruled out due to a lack of bunk space. It just so happened that all the cabins were booked up by over tired Shetland Up Helly AA revellers returning to the mainland. Fortunately, team manager Coltherd managed to secure enough seats on the 0730hrs flight to Aberdeen thus ensuring an extra night at home for the players.

Youth Rugby | U14s v Caithness & Ross Sutherland 2-2-20

4/2/2020

 
Match Report  Games v Caithness and Ross Sutherland 2-2-20

On Sunday 2nd February  a smaller than usual squad of U 14s headed across the firth to Caithness for matches against Caithness and Ross Sutherland. The squad had players missing due to other sporting commitments, injury and illness so a squad of 11 headed over.

A beautiful day for rugby and with Caithness and Ross Sutherland both having full squads it was agreed to play a round robin format and the other teams would provide them with the players to bring them up to a full compliment of 15. It was agreed that it would be youth scoring rules with 3 points for a try and 1 for a conversion.
