This Saturday
OIRFC 1st XV vs Finsbury Park, league Wood Lane, ko 3pm
The 1st XV has been somewhat depleted with injuries and non availabilities this season so far, but we have a stronger team for this Saturday so come along and support.
4th November – Past/Injured Players and Supporters lunch
John Scannel is organising a lunch at the clubhouse before the league match vs Harlequins, ko 2.30. It’s a good deal at £10 for a curry plus a pint/glass of wine/soft drink. The bar will be open from 1pm. This is our first pre match lunch in a while, so do your best to attend, meet your old play mates and support the 1st XV.
We need to get an idea of numbers, so if you’re thinking of attending, email John Scannell <iplayrugby88@hotmail.com>
2nd December – Paintball Fundraiser
As there’s no game on the 2nd December we are planning an Old I’s Paintball day followed with drinks in Richmond in the evening. This will double as a fundraiser, and the cost will be £15 plus you’ll have to buy your paintballs from the venue. We feel a £10 minimum “Guilt tax” should suffice for those who can’t make the day and of course that will go straight to the club. Details of how to pay to follow.
The paint balling will be all day, although you can leave at your leisure if you can only commit to a few hours. Bring the kids along if you think they will enjoy it and over 10yrs of age, but you will be responsible for them (would you trust an Old I’s player with a paint gun near your children anyway?).
We will confirm a meet time for the evening drinks and simple fancy dress closer to the time. At the moment we are just confirming interest (lots of people have shown that they are keen already). If you’d like to attend the paintball or just the evening please let me know via email or on the Facebook “event” page. **Important** Emails should be sent to: stumay@hotmail.co.uk
20th December – Old Boys and School match
On Wednesday 20th December afternoon we have the annual match with Isleworth & Syon School which all OIRFC players are welcome to play in. If you are interested email tony.winslade@btinternet.com
Please note all the above now in your diaries.
