Blues Player on 7s Development Squad

Our very own Elias Hancock (uOttawa/Nepean) was on the 7s development team on tour for the South American Rugby Sevens series.

The write ups from the 2 tournaments can be found on the RC website: rugby.ca

Reversible Pinnies for Sale

As requested by the membership we sought out some reversible pinnies, the basketball variety were too thin and broke easily so we went for a heavier “lacrosse” style. Email info@bytownbluesrugby.ca to secure yours. They are 65$ and samples can be found on our social media platforms. HERE

TERP Fundraising

Happy New Year
Our fundraising goes until Feb. 2
Please pass this along to your club members through all your social media methods.
The key for this fundraising is to work on the fields and the women’s change room.
TWIN ELM is doing a final fundraiser to get our fields and clubhouse in better shape.
If you can donate any amount it will go a long way to building our sustainability. You will receive a tax receipt for your donation!!!
You have until Feb. 2 to donate.
Go to www.sport4ontario.ca, click on “Resources”, donate and we are project #115, sponsored by the Ospreys.
Let’s keep TERP moving forward!!!
Thanks
