Giving Back

In the sprit of the holidays, G-Rugby raised over $200 to buy food for the Greensboro Urban Ministry.  The team donated a total of 402 pounds of much needed food and clothing to the local outreach agency.  

Thank you to everyone who worked hard to make this happen!  Its awesome when a team can come together and help out those in need, especially during a very busy time of year!  For more information out the Greensboro Urban Ministry, click here!

U-23 Tryouts!

Congratulations are in order for Courtney, Janet and Megan, 
who made it to the second round of the NCRU Women's U-23 Tryouts!!  

You ladies rock! Great job to everyone who tried out and gave it their all!  

Practice

If I were at this practice I would have been completely distracted by the sunset!

Great Play

Some beautiful play by the back line by the Scarlets, also, why you look for a staggered defense to run through.

New Season!

Check back soon for updates, including a calendar, new photos, links and information!

Ready for Rugby?!

Just a reminder that our first practice of the season is tomorrow!  Please bring a mouth guard, cleats, sneakers and your school ID.  The field is wet from this weekend's rain, so we may have to move inside, but we are trying to stay outside for as long as possible!  Please also bring a water bottle!!

Don't forget that if you are buying equipment for this season, any layers you wear under your jersey or shorts need to be navy blue or black! 

the SPRING 2010 SEASON!!

Hello Ladies!

As the 2010 season draws near, its time to talk about practice!  This year, Tara will be taking over as head coach, along with her fiance Gabe.  Both of them have a ton of experience, have played high level rugby and are excited to be part of the team.  As for me, I will still be around at practice, but only as support for Tara and Gabe and you guys.   As some of you know, our practice times for the semester are now Monday 8-10, Tuesday 8-10 and Thursday 9-11.  We will also be holding 2 additional fitness practices, where we will focus on running and sprinting and getting our endurance up.

Since we don't need a field for these practices, here are some options for us.  If you are going to VEGAS you need to vote because you have to come to at least one of them per week.

POSSIBLE FITNESS PRACTICE TIMES

Sunday - any time after 4 (2 hr blocks, so let me know if something doesn't work)

Wed - 6-8AM; any time after 4

Fri - 6-8AM; any time after 4

Please let me know by FRIDAY what times work and DON'T work for you.  Everyone should try to come to these practices so I am going to try to make it work for everyone on the team. You will get an email Saturday with the practice times and what you need to bring!

OK ENOUGH WITH THE VEGAS STUFF!

Because its WINTER, its cold.  (duh) So everyone is going to be getting longed sleeved things to wear under their jerseys.  They must be black or navy!!  They should not have zippers or weird buttons or look like you stole them from Guilford or the Women's Ultimate team!  At practice, make sure you wear layers, as you might get hot while you run, but cold while you do a drill.  Bring long pants, your mouthguard, water, cleats and sneakers (you never know when we need to move inside)

PRACTICE STARTS THE 25th!!  OUR FIRST GAME IS THE 30th at HOME vs WAKE!

Everyone is welcome to come to the fitness practices - actually you are encouraged and you will be a better rugby player if you do. yay!  We might have a fitness practice the first week of school, but it is completely optional :D
