This weekend was the third round of games in the new season.
Our Senior Women's game was cancelled.
The Senior Men had a rearranged home game against Surrey Beavers at John Oliver Park, a difficult game to play in the weather conditions but it was a physical battle which saw many goal line stands by both teams. We had 3 tries pulled back by the ref which resulted in a 5 to 0 loss.
The U16 Boy's game was cancelled.
The U18 Boys played against Squamish . This game was the first 15 v 15 game this season. After a difficult drive up the Sea to Sky highway our coaches made sure that all of our 30+ players got to play in the game which was played in a swamp after the atmospheric river landed, so much for not playing in standing water! This game ended up as being our first loss of the season, 29 to 0.
We also had to cancel the Junior Girl's game and the Girls Can Rugby event this weekend.
A big thank you goes out to all the referees, coaches, players, supporters and Club Executives who helped make this weekend happen, with the last minute changes and soaking wet weather.
Next games will be on October 26th & 27th.

Just a note to let everyone know what is happening down at John Oliver Park this season.
We now have Minis, Junior Boys, Junior Girls, Senior Men and Senior Women running at John Oliver Park.
The Junior Boys alone have 60+ players for the U16 & U18 teams which we are running this season. This is down to our coaches Brandon Bloomfield and Kelvin Paddle bringing their high school players to us, which has also woke up our Delta school players to come out as well.
