    Albany WA

    Does anyone know if there is still a rugby union club in Albany and, particularly, do they have junior teams?

    Thanks, I've already contacted both those people, they haven't been involved for a few years!
    Have also emailed RugbyWA and had no reply

    They have a touch rugby comp, but don't think there is any rugby. Set a team up yourself!

    I met a guy at JB's last night who was from Albany and involved in a club there. He might see this thread.

    There are a lot of saffers in Albany so I am surprised there is not a competition going.

    Chuck Norris has the greatest Poker-Face of all time. He won the 1983 World Series of Poker, despite holding only a Joker, a Get out of Jail Free Monopoly card, a 2 of clubs, 7 of spades and a green #4 card from the game Uno.

    Yes, I did get a reply eventually. The club/s folded a couple of years ago, the person said there was going to be a meeting about re-starting and they'd let me know the outcome but I didn't hear anymore about it.

    Let us know if they ever want to travel past the airport for a game. With enough warning we may be able to organise a team from Katanning to play. Duncan McQuade was talking about junior rugby for down that way not long ago but i only bumped into him randomly and dont have his contact dets

    Fantastic! I was already wondering if this was an option, so that's great to hear.
    We are currently gathering members - looks like a mini-springboks in the making - have a Le Roux, a Pretorious, and a Van Wyk so far!

    I will make contact.
