8^th November - Round 2 - Friday Night Under Lights  - Men’s & Women – 1815 for 1900 start @ Eastleigh RFC

Although the weather tried its best to deter us, players from Eastleigh, Southampton, Overton, Locksheath Pumas and Tottonians turned up and we all had an enjoyable evening at our First Friday Night Underlights event.  ‘Well done to all’

Our second event will be held this coming Friday (8^th November) at Eastleigh RFC and we are ready for another ‘Fun’ evening. 

Ladies:  Ladies at Alton are very much look forward to playing and I am hopeful that ladies from Trojans will also attend to kick start our Women’s event.  Ladies from all clubs and of all abilities are most welcome.

Golden Rule: Please remember the golden rule of the evening is to have fun and the games are about engaging players of all abilities

• ·       Number in teams will be dependent on number of players that turn up.  Previously we have played between 8-11 players on half pitch. However, in our last event we played 14 a side (x2 periods of 20min and a sudden death next score were the winners)
