Selections for L2\M2 will be during U18 and Open Traning Sessions over the next fortnight.

It would be great to get some social teams together to play on the Monday / Tuesday night and are open to suggestions around how to best make up teams – the options look to be varied with a mixed format being considered as well.

BJ is considering dusting off his togs, and a number of our Dads have been talking about putting together a team – possible combining with their older sons.

The “retro togs” post on social media was popular – if interest maybe we can introduce this as social team uniform!

As far as training options go, please let us know your thoughts on the EOI – as we can schedule sessions regularly or maybe even a Boot Camp format for new players.

We have asked WPQ to confirm the minimum registration requirements for Social players and once we have some more details, and an indication of interest, we will be able to give an indication of costs.

Thanks

Barras Committee
