There are 20 different styles of jersey to choose from and 12 different colors - sadly no hot pink. We must place our order by Christmas for the jerseys. Since we agreed that you girls could choose the jerseys/colors we would like anyone that is interested in helping choose to meet at Cariboo coffee (hwy 100 and Bluemound next to Qdoba)this coming Tuesday at 10am. If you are not able to attend and would like to place a vote on colors/style the website to design the jersey is

Place comments or votes here if you are not able to make the brief meeting. We also need the team logo that you girls chose.
Finally, a big thanks to Abby who helped (was forced) to write the essays that helped us to win. We will be looking very sharp for our first home game in April!

yearbook
Also, a special thanks to Sara K. for pushing the rugby article in the Scope. Many incoming families got copies of the paper and came over to talk about the program. All together we had many incoming freshman that are interested in coming out next year. If some of them come out, some of the girls that signed up at club day along with our "core" players - that's you guys - we will have a good size team!
Sad new re:fund raising from Gilles. I talked with the manage and they currently don't do what Culvers does by giving a charity 10% of the profits for a 2 hour period. I left him with some facts on how it would increase his profits if it was done on a star day and we had the teachers phone in orders which were picked up/delivered by the rugby team and he said he was willing to think about it but I'm not holding my breath.

fund raising
If you girls are like Abby you may be having some rugby withdrawal. While I know the spring season does not start for a while we have been looking into different ways to make money so we can compete in tournaments. A few girls will be going to California in March along with Oak Creek and Northshore to make up one of the 14 girls international teams at Fullerton. We are looking into tournaments for late spring and possibly some travel scrimmages this summer or 7's tournaments. In order to cut down on costs AND to get the money to cover the cost of the uniforms that you would eventually like (hot pink) we need to fund raise starting now.
* Shirts will be hitting the bookstore soon (possible x-mas presents for loved ones???) - we have to work out an account with them because we are the only "club" to sell in the bookstore and then Pius controls your money.
* Anyone interested in selling candy let me know. Also if you have a Sam's card so we can buy in bulk let me know. I have purchased some large candy bars, Reese's pb cups and large boxes of m&m's at a very good rate - we should be able to double our money on each.
* Holiday bake sale at Pius???? I am not sure if we need permission or who to get permission from so if anyone would like to line up a date for a bake sale sometime early Decemberish in the union that would be great.
* I have contacted a cookie company that sells 13 different types of pre-made cookie dough and they are sending out packets for those who wish to sell. They are promising that the dough will be here in time for Xmas which will make it easier to sell - at least from this full time working mom's view.
* I am still looking into Mayfair malls gift wrapping for charity but no guaranty yet.
* A Culvers night is also a possibility however I am not sure how we could get the word out to enough people to make this worthwhile. We would get 10% of the profits for the orders that came in with the Pius slips -- and no we can't hand them out at Culvers.
* Anyone with pull at Gilles let me know. I was thinking about asking them to do the 10% thing on a 'star' day. That way kids could walk from Pius to get food AND the teachers could phone in their orders, give you girls the money and you run back/forth so they can eat during their meetings and we would get money.
* Mr. Z's has contacted us about possibly selling pizzas in late winter. I work at a poor inner city school and the school just raised $9,000 from selling these. Just a thought.
Please let us know if you have any ideas, can arrange any fundraising events, find a rich donor looking for somewhere to spend money etc.
Two last things:
- We still need 2 jerseys from the last game & Dann's game shorts
- Christmas is just around the corner. I was thinking that the team could get together and sign a xmas paper that will be made into a team xmas card (with your team photo) and given to all the teachers at Pius -- a little suck up goes a long way.
Any questions or comments let us know.

Pirates Plunder Crusaders
Way to go Pius Pirates. This win took your hard work, determination, team work and grit - along with lots of ice, tylenol and one trip to the ER. Your awesome teamwork skills led to 2 tries by Lindsey and 2 by Sarah K. (one with a 65 yard run) and one conversion by Ellie. This win would not have been possible if you all had not played your hardest! You showed your ability to think on your feet, play different positions as needed and that heat stroke could not even stop you. This win is even more incredible when you look at the fact that our team played down Iplayers on the field for part of the second 1/2 (down 2 players to be exact). I would also like to thank all the injured for having the courtesy to be injured on our side of the field so I did not have to run so far. Congratulations on your well earned win. The boys may have lost homecoming to CMH but the GIRLS RUGBY TEAM won it back.

I put together a new poster board of pictures from the last few weeks. It includes Sunday's game, the scrimmage, pwetty princesses and practices. It is in the union where the first board was. Stop by and check it out - talk it up - we could use some recruits.

Sunday's game
(258-6927). Dann would like everyone to be there around 2ish to watch some of the a-side game and to run some plays. Our game is around 3:30. If parents do not want to wait we are willing to drive girls out early. If parents drop you off they can re-enter the park with their receipt. Since this game was rescheduled (and the male coaches planned it) I am not clear on exactly who is hosting. According to Dann it is one of the a-side teams for all the games however if you would like to bring a dessert or something feel free. I think they will be having subs. Sorry for the short notice but it is all I got.

Good news, Bad news
Good news: We have found/purchased a decent jersey that we can use temporarily - this year or until our "permanent" jerseys can be funded.
Bad news: Underarmer is for sports with little to no contact and according to the sales reps they would not be appropriate for rugby.
Also, the reps felt that Adidas soccer shirts felt that they would be too thin and their rugby shirts would never be ready.
Good news: One company has soccer shirts that will hopefully work and can be here by our first game with numbers on them.
Bad news: We could not find pink or any florescent color (soccer only uses plain colors).
Good news: We ordered the soccer shirts that can be here in time. While not hot pink, they do look sharp - red/black stripes and we thought one red/one black sock with black shorts.
THESE ARE NOT THE TEAMS OFFICIAL JERSEYS - THE TEAM WILL STILL BE PICKING THE STYLE AND COLORS OF YOUR KIT. THE SHIRTS THAT HAVE BEEN PURCHASED WILL BE USED TEMPORARILY UNTIL WE HAVE THE FUNDING NECESSARY FOR THE PURCHASE OF THE SHIRTS THE TEAM DESIGNS!!!
