MECHANICSBURG, PA — Citing an urgent need for aging ruggers to sharpen their rugby skills, OGREs Captain Brian Hart has opened up his academy for “Old Ruggers Who Want to Play Rugby Good and Learn to Do Other things Good, Too.” This training is essential for regaining the Atlantic World Cup title that has eluded the team for an unprecedented two years.
“We were upset in the Finals last year,” Hart explained. “And it was pretty clear that, in spite of our advanced ages, we were missing some basic foundational and rugby IQ standards that had been our hallmark in years past.”
The 35 and over rugby tournament will be played at the Hudson Fields in Lewes, De. at a date to be determined. (Though safe bet it is August 15, following previous years’ format).
Aging ruggers are encouraged to come to 7s trainings and shit on local 25-year-olds on Tuesday and Thursday evenings, 6:30-8:30 to get their legs under them. An age-appropriate training format will be announced at a future date.
Stay tuned for more details.
