LADIES DAY 2021

Posted on November 5, 2021November 8, 2021 by Merewether.6523

We are very happy to report that our Ladies Day 2.0 event went ahead last Saturday and was a resounding success.

Thank you to everyone who came along in their Touch of Green ready to have a great day. Our spirits were high and it was amazing to see so many familiar smiling faces keen to catch up after the lockdown period.

We didn’t have rugby (cricket instead!) but we had the wonderful Gina and Terry who entertained us with their musical talent and had the dance floor in full swing. Thank you Gina and Terry we had an absolute ball and everyone is raving about how much fun they had on the dance floor.

Thank you to all of our sponsors involved in the day. Cuppa Joes for treating our Queen of the Green Jude Tynan and her husband Terry to a delicious breakfast before Jude headed over to the Beauty And The Fox salon to have her hair and makeup done – thank you Beauty and the Fox. Jude you were a beautiful first Queen of The Green, we hope you enjoyed your special day!

Thank you to Amanda McKenzie and team for setup and running the bar and catering on the day. Thanks to Styx Brewery, Kellie from Lillies n Limes for our grazing boxes and Banlaw for sponsoring our pizzas at the end of the day. Thank you to our prize donations, Jewellery Affair, NCYC, and many more, thanks to our volunteers who helped set up and check everyone in, and everyone else who contributed to the day.

A HUGE thank you to Jenny Hawes who put so much time and effort into organising the day (twice!). What a success Jen, thank you.

What a fabulous day! Thank you for your support. We cannot wait to do it all again next year!

Dads and Lads Event 2021

Posted on May 26, 2021June 18, 2021 by Merewether.6523

On Sunday 16th May, players, family, friends and others within the community came out of the woodwork to head to Townson on a sunny afternoon to witness some ancient rugby skills on display.

The Dads and Lads match was a fantastic afternoon, and a wonderful chance for dads who have watched countless games of their son’s rugby, to be able to take the field together.

It was great to see the younger guys embrace the event and enjoy the day as well. After a few ‘tough’ games, it was off to the Green Room to share tales of old and new and reminisce of a time when we still had it. The Green Room was alive with excitement and the spirit of rugby was the winner on the day.

Our intention is for this to be an annual event and to be able to welcome new recruits as their young blokes turn 18. Thank you to everyone who was involved in the day, special mention to our sponsors for allowing this day to go forward.

We must express our sympathy to Nick King who unfortunately came off worse for wear on the day. We hope you are doing ok Nick.

Cheers,
Jockie Wilson

A special thank you to Stewart Hazell for coming along and taking these photos that we will hold as great memories of the day!
