LRU KIDS JERSEYS

Posted on: June 5th, 2017 by president No Comments

Hello all,

We have decided to do a limited run of children sized jersey’s for the club members.

Priced at $50 it represents amazing value, with custom number to go with it. Think of all the cute “Like father like son/daughter” photos.
Due to the production runs, all orders need to be in by Fri 09/06/2017 as we can only do a limited run on them.

All purchases can be made through;

LRU Mental Health Week

Posted on: June 1st, 2017 by president No Comments

This weekend is Mental Health Awareness round where the players of Lindfield Rugby Club will be wearing one of the batyr ‘One Sock One Goal’ socks. Pioneered by our very own Jake Broxom, this day is designed to promote awareness of the stigma surrounding discussions about mental health.

Almost 1 in 5 Australians will suffer from some sort of mental illness each year and is the third leading cause of disability. This day is aimed at giving a voice to such a prevalent issue in modern society which still goes largely unnoticed.

batyr are an organisation that focuses on preventative education in the area of youth mental health. They provide programs that train young people to speak about their personal experience with mental ill health and start a conversation in their community. You can read more at http://www.batyr.com.au/

All games against Hunters Hill will be at Tryon Oval, with 4th Grade kicking things off at 10:45am. There will be a BBQ all day along with a raffle and plenty of beers, wine, champagne and drinks for the kids.

It should be a cracker of a day so bring the parents, the kids, the siblings or anyone who would enjoy a nice relaxing Saturday arvo at the footy.

The new Lindfield budgy smugglers have just arrived so you never know, you might get a glimpse of the glory!

Back to Lindfield Day 2017

Posted on: April 18th, 2017 by president No Comments

It’s time!!! After taking a break over Summer it is time for club house corner to spring back to life in the only way it knows how…

2017 kicks off this weekend, April 22nd, with Back To Lindfield Day against newly promoted Beecroft.

To compliment the champagne rugby that will be on show we have Jackalope, back by popular demand, who will cook up a guaranteed storm and our friends at Wayward and Feral brewing serving up cold beverages.

On ‘Back To Lindfield Day’ we like to give a little bit back to the community we represent on the footy field each week, and with activities for the kids, and running rugby on the menu for the adults it’s going to be a real spectacle.

It’s going to be a great day and everyone is more than welcome so make sure to spread the word and get club house corner roaring!

Cancellation of Waverley Trial 25/03/17

Posted on: March 23rd, 2017 by president No Comments

All,

The rain has finally calmed down, but alas, it got the better of us. Council has had to close the fields this weekend, and with no alternative field, even in the Eastern Suburbs, we have resigned ourselves to the fact that the trial has to be cancelled.

To the players, please still get to training, as we have a trail against Mosman the next weekend, and would love to have a good showing.

To the supporters, sorry for the one week delay in your season start, I assure you Champagne rugby for the forthcoming season as compensation.

Regards,

Raef Johnson
