fund raising

We need to start fund raising now so that we will have enough money to travel in the spring - if we have the players. Even if we have to combine with another team to play I would like there to be little to no cost -- except touristy stuff. We will be doing the cookie dough sale in November because some girls have their trip almost paid for from last years fund raiser. Any summer ideas???

Sevens Tournament/fall rugby

We will not be playing in this Saturday's Harlequin 7's tournament at the lakefront due to lack of numbers. Only 2 people have been to 7's practice. There is a 7's tournament in July however we would have to have 11 committed girls at practice to consider paying out our own money for the entrance fee.

Fall Pius XI Girls Rugby
Fall practice will be starting by the beginning of August. In order for there to be a Pius XI Girls Jester team we must have a MINIMUM of 20 committed girls that make practice and go to games. If we can not get at least this number we will attempt to combine with another team - no guarantees. We can not continue to have only 9 girls at practice and 10 girls at games with fill-ins from the other team. It is also not safe to have no subs to fill in when needed. There were several games where our girls played the entire game (bravo by the way) only to be up against a team that could rotate in fresh players every 15 min. This is why many injuries occur. Our team has the ability to be very good if we have the numbers, determination and practice. While we are called the 'Pius XI Girls Rugby' at this time we do not have the numbers from Pius to keep players exclusively from Pius. It does not matter to me what school the girls that play for our team come from (Wauwatosa, Milw. Lutheran, HS of the Arts, MPS) as long as they make practice/games and have the heart to be a rugger they will be considered. Should we have a large number of Pius girls that wish to play they will still take priority. So bottom line
IF YOU WANT THIS TEAM TO CONTINUE WE NEED MORE COMMITTED GIRLS! If you find someone interested give them our phone number or the web site info so they can leave us a message.

LETS GET THIS TEAM GOING - I HAVE BIG PLANS FOR THE SPRING

If you will be playing in the fall please leave a message.
