FINAL Rugby Tournament!!!

Canes and Clones #1

Starting the season off on the Hurricanes A squad- playing with the Cyclones B squad- when we had lots of players, and then finishing the season playing on BOTH! It was a great way to be apart of it all and get ten awesome games of Rugby 7's in this past weekend! 

I was also moved from my traditional WING spot, to being the "ten" man.... aka the first person in the black line (rather than the last) to get the ball and move the ball out. I was extremely nervous for my new position, especially since we were going into the last game of the season, but after a week of practice I was starting to feel a little more confident about the change up.

My awesome Cyclones team finished FIRST in the B division- playing with most teams seconds teams, though winning the division had us play the last place team in the A division- Abu Dhabi. It was a close game, but in the end we were a tri or two short to win the BOWL.

 


 


 

On the plus side my Hurricanes team WON First place in the A division- winning the overall trophy for the league, it was a great time and I was so glad to be a part of it.  The night ended in a massive celebration and a good time was to be had by all.  Playing for the Hurricanes Women's Rugby Club has been the best experience by far since moving to Dubai. I couldn’t have asked for better teammates and a close group of girls that have become my great friends.
