Still waiting for response - HK 7's were an all-day affair - kiddies stuff from 8.00 in the morning, the real stuff in the afternoons. And sitting out in the sun, 'cos the stands were very small. All changed now, much more professional, but not so much fun.

So, is here any shade? Is there any food? I can bring my own water.

sorrry for late reply,

yes i remember the rhyme now. its the 30th to the 1st then.

there was a small shaded area last year but it was still stinking hot.and the bar was on the other side of the pitch!!!!!!

so we had an umberella girl.

cheap to get for the day and will hold the umbrella over your bald head to your hearts content.

had food...was thai and i think burgers and french fries.

had beer...heineken and all the others as well as soft drinks.

did however have a stupid system of buying the vouchers for beer and then handing them back to the same person to get the beer..............

but a great day out.

not sure about starting time but last year we turned up about 12.00 and ended at about 5.30.

enough rugby played and seen.

to see some of these guys run around for 20minutes is heartbreaking.

see ya there ..ill be the guy with the unbrella girl.

ps. you have to bring her with you.(cant rent her there)

I know the problems with the heat - used to play in Saudi (Khobar Eagles in early nineties / Jeddah in late nineties) and Libya (Benghazi, throughout the eighties). Also in Hong Kong, as part of a Chinese development team (Nomads).

Khobar and Jeddah - we used to have a water break at twenty minutes.

Benghazi we played through, but had water bottles at the side of the pitch.

But the worst was the HK touch rugby. Turned up for matches with the Nomads, was then 'volunteered' to play in a second team and then recruited into a mixed (ladies and men) team. Played five matches on one Saturday afternoon - drank my tee-shirt at the end.

(Before anyone asks - there were restrictions on where the men could touch the ladies, no restrictions on where the ladies could tackle the men. Ouch

)

See you midday Saturday. I'll be the fat, old, scruffy guy in shorts and sandals.

Hope this is of some use,had it emailed to me today.

revised draw and playing order for the CK Memorial Rugby Tournament

As you will see the tournament has increase to 16 teams, so there has been a change to the format and the starting times for most teams. The principal is still the same ... plenty of rugby and plenty of socialising !

The tournament kicks-off for everybody, with team registration on Friday night at Jamesons - The Irish Bar (see attached map) from 7.30 onwards, feel free to get their earlier if you wish !

The rugby starts at 9.00am on Saturday at The Horseshoe Point Resort and Country Club (see the other attached map). After you have finished the group games on Saturday the serious action beings.

The "Quaich" is a drinking cup which is awarded to the team which displays the most commitment to alcohol on the Saturday night pub crawl. There are five ports of call starting with the pool of Horseshoe Point, where the Heineken girls will be there to serve you. The more you drink the more chance you have of returning home with silverware !! Full details will be available on Friday night

On a serious note, first aid medical facilities will be provided at the venue by the Bangkok Pattaya Hospital , however, it is advisable that all players have suitable medical insurance to cover any unforeseen injuries.

Looking forward to seeing you all on Friday night in Jamesons

Regards

Brian
