GYTES GOSSIP
(PN 17 July 2009)
The summer camp which runs from
28th to 30th July at Hay Lodge Park for the for P1-3,
P4/5, P6/7, S1/S2 age groups still has spaces available at all age levels.
Anyone not already booked, should contact
graemepaterson@aol.com or download
details and forms from www.peeblesrfc.org,
then complete and return to Graeme as soon as possible in order to avoid
disappointment.
Also at Hay Lodge, the annual
Touch Rugby tournament was due to start on Wednesday at 7.30 PM. However due to
some late entries it was not possible to get the tournament up and running so
the evening was given over to a turn up and play event enjoyed by all. The
tournament proper will start next Wednesday at 7.30 PM and runs for 3 weeks with
the finals followed by a BBQ on Friday 7th August. Details and entry
forms are available on the web site
www.peeblesrfc.org or contact Graeme Paterson direct to enter a team or just
join in.
Heard in the Eastgate. Why do
rugby players like smart women? Opposites attract.
Training proper starts next
Tuesday and following last season’s success, will follow the same formula with a
specialist running coach concentrating on improving speed over the ground for
the players. Once again players from our associate club, Walkerburn will be
joining the training sessions.
James Oakes will be re-joining
the squad next month and also coming from down under is a utility back, Steve
Gee and a second row, Matt Thomson.
Work on improving the fabric
maintenance (painting and decorating to you or I) of the function hall will be
starting next week. Anyone handy with a paintbrush, hammer and nails, or just
some spare elbow grease and a willingness to lend a hand should contact Jim
Currie who is masterminding the improvements. Contact Jim on 07742 919694 or
leave a message with bar staff.
