Surrey Beavers Rugby

 This spring we will be pushing a Beavers Yahoo Group membership drive. This will be a newsletter/message board type of format. Please note we are not trying to replace Facebook, our purpose is to inform our membership immediatly what is happening when it happens.  Our purpose is to  immedialy update you on practices, games, scedules, special events, parties, reunions and news. All news.

Membership is for everyone, old/new supporters, current players, juniors, fans, old players ( yes even really old players ), referees and even old athletic supporters.  This is to be an active membership it is not to be driven by one person, it is meant to be used by everyone. It is important that everyone get involved in keeping the club updated with news. All news, it's very important. I would love to tell a few old stories about old Beaver legends, like, even Mark or Kevin.

All Beavers so when you receive your membership request, JOIN NOW! 

Please forward all names, phone numbers, addresses, email address, etc. to any club executive or to me, Russ ( Rusty ), so the club can be updated.

 Our clubs growing stronger daily,  its important we get the word out. NOW.  

 Our club is driven by our membership, our strength is our membership.

GET TO PRATICE.

Congratulations to the U-i9's for a great year boys.

The U-19 Beav's were very impressive in the last 3 games of the year. Playing a style of power rugby that made all of us all very proud. The drive and commitment  from these young men was awesome to see, and shows how bright our rugby's future looks.

The coaching staff this year deserves a lot of the credit of the success of the Beavers this year. As a fan it was easy to see the special bond between the players and coaches this year and the  drive to play for each other. This is what rugby is all about. To the coaches, again, well done.

The game against Bayside started off fairly even but as the game wore on, the Beav's started to take control of the game. Again it was our power and pursuit to the ball that had Bayside back pedallng late in the game, it was a nice win.   The game Nov. 29 against Capilanos was different, it looked like Capilanos really did not want to be there. It reminded me of the old days when teams would show fear when they walked onto our field. The day was all the U-19's way.

Saturday, against Abbotsford we started well, but on the day Abbotsford was the better team.  On any other day it could have been different, I would love to see them play again next week. Abbotsford played very well, made very few mistakes and they got themselves out of trouble when the Beavers were pressing. The Beavers did make some mistakes that cost them, yes, but I really think the boys may have been guilty of  trying a little to hard. Sometimes a little patience is good.

Awesome U-19 Beavers, it was a pleasure to be a fan.

Location of practices is Sullivan Heights Park (corner of 64th Ave and 144th Street next to the Bell Centre).

Don't forget about the Beaver Lodge. Come by after practice for a couple pops!
