UTS Gridiron

Guys,

Got some bad news…

Mustangs will be forfeiting again this weekend due to lack of numbers.

This is somewhat of a disappointment but out of our control.

I have offered some assistance with Officiating if they need help, they said they should be ok for but we might be able to have a few of us there if your willing to help.

The league has announced its 25th Anniversary Dinner.

When: Friday 21 November 7:00pm
Where: NSW Leagues Club, Phillip Street Sydney
Cost: $65 per person

Please RSVP and arrange payment to Matt or Porridge by Friday 14 November.

Final scores tonight were Pirates (43) vs UTS (18).

Next week UTS play Mustangs at Pennant Hills Hockey. Kickoff at 7pm.

Please note that as of tonight, games this weekend have been have moved from grass to synthetic playing field venues. This is due to the chance of grass fields being washed-out due to the amount of rain this week.

Pirates vs UTS will now be held at UWS Nepean, with kickoff still scheduled for 7pm.

This weeks game against the Pirates is now being played at Craik Park (Austral) not St George as the original draw stated.

This field is natural grass so make sure you bring suitable foot wear.

Kick off is still 7:00 PM, so all players are to be there at 5:00 PM. The early game which kicks off at 4:00 PM will be the Seahawks and Bondi.

Hey guys. Here are a couple changes you might have noticed recently on our site.

ShareThis When viewing a news article (click on the title to view the article single page) there is now a green ShareThis button. Clicking the list opens up a list of popular websites, such as FaceBook and MySpace, which you can then post the article to. You can also send it via old school email for those of us who don’t believe in social networks (Porridge?).

Commenting While in there viewing single page news articles, you will also notice there is a comment form. Feel free to post your opinions on the latest news. Keep in mind though this is the public area of the site, available for everyone to see.

Search Box on the right hand side has been improved. This fixes third party cookies messages some people used to get when looking at the site. All cool now.

Forum It has been a long time coming this year, but will be available this week. Thanks for the patience. You will notice the links to the forum are available on this page, but go to a locked forum site. This year we’re taking a different approach and rather than a common “team password”, everyone will be given personal logons. Keep an eye on your inbox for your login info in the coming days. (Note: forum registration is intentionally disabled - you’ll be emailed at the email address on your rego form).

As always, if you’re interested in writing match reports for the club, contact Matt or myself for more info.
