Craigs News 5th/6th October

Good Morning from a dull West Lodge,

Tomorrow the 1st XV cross the River Clyde to play Glasgow Accies at New Anniesland with a 3.00pm ko. The boys had a great bonus point win last Saturday against Gordonians and played a very open and fast style of rugby. It was great to see a bunch of youngsters playing heads up rugby with a smile on their face. This league has different types of teams and we will struggle against the large older experienced packs but the boys never stop trying and will attack at any opportunity. Glasgow Accies play a similar style to us and so tomorrow has the makings of an exciting game. Get across and support the boys if you can.

The 2nd XV are away to Dalziel with a 3pm kick off. The 2nd’s played on the adjacent pitch to the 1st’s last Saturday in a friendly against Clydebank with a fine win. Again a lot of youngsters playing which bodes well for the future but the “Oldies” were still there, with at one point a front row whose ages totalled 153. Rugby is a game for everyone!

There is a game at home tomorrow with u18’s playing Livingston with a 2pm kick off.

Our Conference opponents this weekend are Livingston with the u13’s and 14’s playing away and the u15’s and 16’s playing at home. 

We welcome the following new companies to our Sponsorship family – Newlands Home Bakery, Williamson and Noble, Darroch Hearing Centres, Glasgow South Dental Care, Seedhill Service Station and Pro Lawn. The list of our sponsors are available on our web site and also on the numerous posters throughout the Club. As ever please support our sponsors as they support us. Please mention that you are from Whitecraigs Rugby Club as it show that their support is working.

The World Cup is continuing apace with a raft of games this weekend with Scotland playing Russia on Wednesday and Japan on Sunday 13th. There will be rugby breakfast on the 13th, see web site and notice board for further details.

The players are organising a Halloween Party on 26th October. Further information is available on social media and from Percy.

The Club function diary is filling up so if you have a 21st, engagement party, charity event or anything similar please contact me for availability. For clarity, we are unable to accept bookings for children’s parties during the rugby season.

Have a great weekend and good luck to all Whitecraigs teams this weekend.
