No rugby yesterday

I went down to the park yesterday, but no rugby. So sad. I was told last week that it's the off season, but I've managed to find two games in the last few weeks, so I thought I'd try my luck again. I guess I'll have to go to some practices to find out what's going on. I'll have to wait until my back clears up (it's twinging) to actually try to run around with the boys (plus I have to find my cleats and a suitable pair of shorts), but I can go see what's going on and meet some people. That's one of the great things about rugby. Once you're a rugby player, you're in the club. You can go around anywhere, find a team, and instantly be accepted. You're not just some old, out-of-shape guy hanging around, you're a rugby player without cleats or shorts.

I'll keep looking around for what's going on with rugby here in Hawaii, and I'll let you know what I find.
