Saturday Oct 27th 2007 - HS Rugby clinic at ASU
This will be a four hour clinic conducted by Curt Huckaby and son Matt, along with the ASU Squad. Following will be a match between ASU vs Univ. of Memphis.

We need to get started promptly at 9:30, with registration from 8:45 to 9:15. Jonesboro is approximately 45 minutes from downtown Memphis, so do the math when calculating your departure time. Each club will be responsible for coordinating your own car pooling, as we all will be traveling from different areas.

Cost for the clinic is $25.00 per player

Coaches we need to get Curt Huckaby a head count by 2nd week in Oct (By Wed Oct 10th) so that he can order T-Shirts. Please submit your head count back to me.

Here’s to another successful clinic and Good Luck to ASU this weekend as they travel to Birmingham to face off against Clemson RFC.

3/24/07 - The Memphis Blues host New Orleans at Noon - The winner advances to the South Div II pool playoffs.

2/24/07 - West Tennessee Conference Jamboree - The event went off as best as could be expected with the weather considerations. We didn't have a tornado like West Memphis but we did have to limit our play with several 30 minute 'rest' periods after lightening strikes.

Tony Brooks refereed the first period as no ref was available. This was a nice mix between Brighton C and Hou-Dova. Hou-Dova scored but I don't recall if Brighton did. Then we saw White station vs Brighton A on the field with Tony Neely refereeing a well played match with Brighton scoring. The final morning match between Hou-Dova and Brighton B was very well contested with both sides scoring. We rested for lunch and came back with White station vs Hou-Dova. Tony again refereed and there was no score. Then he left due to weather stoppages. We opted to get the girls game on as soon as we could with Tony once again refereeing. We were able to get kicked off but due to weather we called it at the 7 minute mark and discontinued play for the day.

I want you to know that everyone was very helpful and we had a safe, fun event thanks to those effort. I am very thankful to John, Jeff, Dave, Justin, Allen, Joseph and Tony without whose efforts this day could not have happened. Thanks to Craig Doyle's Dad: we had safe parking with no incidence of theft and thanks to Tony we had portolets.

Thanks too WhiteStation Boosters for the concessions.

2/19/07 - Houston and Cordova Teams Combine - Based on this past weekend’s experience Both Houston & Cordova Clubs will be combining as one club under the name Hou-Dova, (Mascot is TBA, Maybe Wolf-Stangs or Mus-Pak). We will continue to be a combined side throughout the 2007 season. Therefore I will need to revise the 2007 schedule. Stay tuned....
