Little Brumbies Youth Rugby
The Little Brumbies practice on Tuesday & Thursday from 5:30-7:00 at Bocek Park. Please come out to assist Rob and Francesco. We had a good turnout so far. It looks like we have a few ringers in the U-15 crowd, and hopefully they will stick with it and give us some great future players. This is how we not only make great future players for BC, but also for the country and get Rugby to grow.


Old Boys

From the desk of Wade Gowl:

  • We are ordering one more set of 50 year commemorative jerseys. Order now or wait till the 100th. Click the picture below for the over 50's team picture with the new jerseys.
  • We are attending the Atlantic Cup with the club side. Let me know if you can make it.
