Proposed Internal Rugby Game - Saturday 24th Feb

14/2/2018

Hi folks,

Unfortunately we have not been able to get the last two internal games played due to a mixture of bad weather and lack of players

How would you feel about playing an internal game on 24 February in Kirkwall with a kick off at 1130?
As the 6 Nations games are on that weekend we could watch Ireland v Wales at 1415 that day and Scotland v England at 1645 in the ORFC Clubhouse.

If there is enough interest to get two fifteens out that day then I will book a pitch and get some catering organised if folk were wanting to stay on for the 6 Nations games

You will know that this Saturday (17 Feb) the First XV are playing a vital league match away from home v Dalziel and we wish them well. If you or your friends are down near Dalziel our team would welcome your support.

On 3 March the First XV play another important National League 3 game v Perthshire at Pickie and the Ladies also have an important game at home on that day. So you may want to put that date in your diary too as it will be another big day for the Club and we could do with getting a BIG crowd out to support the teams.

Can you please help me to circulate this to all the players that you think might fancy a game on the 24thFeb and put it onto your favourite social media sites.

Then could you get back to me with some idea of how many folk may come out for a game and I will organise dressing rooms, catering and refs accordingly

Thanks in anticipation of your help,
Ian Carse - Vice Chair, ORFC
