Tuesday meeting

2009-10-12T19:27:00.001-07:00

Everyone please meet me at the field house after school on Tuesday. It will be brief and you will have time to get to your other meetings and practices. I just want to go over a change in practice times on Wednesdays,and where they will be. We will be heading down to practice with Oak Creek at 5 pm on Weds. for the rest of the fall season. This will give a practice that has enough people attending so the workout can be productive and new things can be done. The time will be from 5 to 6:30 in Oak Creek and I will have copies of the driving instructions with me. Ideally , we will have car pools set up to limit the # of cars we need to bring.

Directions for MF

2009-10-02T13:43:00.000-07:00

What I had before was right. Go up Appleton Ave. until you pass the McDonalds and Walgreens on the left It is the next left BEFORE Starbucks. (Kena the is a pet store on the right). Head on Menonomee until you see some yellow brick (really yellow) school buildo==ings on the left. There is a flashing stop sign. Field is behind the yellow building

Sunday at Menonomee Falls

2009-10-01T18:47:00.000-07:00

Game time is 1 pm

Please either answer this post or call me and tell me you are coming.

You can get to the field by taking 41/45 to Appleton Ave then heading into MF on Apppleton. Go past Pilgrem until you get to Menonmee. (I have been told the streets are not well marked, but its near the McDonalds and a Walgreens) Head left until the flashing light. the easiest way to access the field is when you reach the intersection of Menomonee and Lavergne (blinking stop light) continue west on Menomonee and turn left into the school district office parking lot, continue to the back of the building and field will be right there.

I am heading out to see if these directions work on Friday, so I will update if needed.

Please Please Please answer the post

Sunday new time

2009-09-12T07:37:00.000-07:00

Well it's a good thing I read some of Dann's email. Apparently game is at 1:30. Be there at 12:30. We need everyone to be there they have a much larger team than ours but our team has the guts. Don't forget to bring a dessert and a gallon of water. If you are in the really giving mood feel free to bring some small containers of Gatorade for the after match party. Any questions call 258-6927. Just so I know who reads this please sign your name - Ricky I know you do!

Mrs Watters

Sunday's Game

2009-09-11T10:25:00.000-07:00

Sunday's game is at 1pm be there at noon. Remember there is a cost to get into the park per car. As an added surprise I just learned that we are hosting this game. Everyone needs to bring:
some type of dessert and 1 gallon of water.

If you are not able to make it please call, the number of girls that turn out for this game may decide if we can continue this fall. Other teams have refused our suggestion to play 10 or 12 girls at a time so that we could have subs.

Also in order to play I need your registration sheet signed by your parent and a copy of your insurance card. Please also remember to turn in your picture release form so photos can go on the web and the club dues - $100.

Last week

2009-08-31T16:57:00.000-07:00

This is it girls. We need to have at least 20 registration forms and insurance cards by the end of practice Thursday in order to keep the team going. If you were on the team last year and your insurance has not changed just write that on the registration form.

If we get the number we need to continue games will start in September - not this weekend. We have been asked to play a homecoming game against Catholic Memorial again this year (we won last year!)

There is one other concern that has risen this year. Since most of the team consists of players that now work and play other sports, the time for rugby practice has decreased. We know everyone is busy however this is a sport that having only a few girls at practice does not work. If the team continues there will have to be at least one practice day where we have at least 15 ruggers to practice formations, plays etc. So, all that being said I sincerely hope that our team can continue this fall and kick some butt. We have the makings for a good team, it would be great if the Jesters could continue this fall. Any questions call 258-6927.

Mrs Watters

2009-08-12T10:19:00.000-07:00

PRACTICE HAS STARTED

Lets start turning out so we can see what your team looks like. Britt has brought out some new faces from Milwaukee school of the arts for us. Please call me or send messages along with someone if you cannot make it. It's your team ladies, it will go as far as you push it.

Pass it on

2009-08-06T11:52:00.000-07:00

I just read that Esa's sister is coming to Pius this year - smart choice! Pass on the website and information about the rugby team practices. She played with us before maybe she will do it again. Make sure that everyone who played or has shown interest has the information about next weeks practices.

2009-08-05T08:57:00.000-07:00

Tuesday 4 pm Juneau[at least for the first few weeks]
Wednesday 4 @ Juneau
Thursday 4 @ Juneau
I will have forms for the season availble at my house sometime Wednesday afternoon
Aug 5 or you can get them Tuesday. I need all new forms for this season.
Sorry this is late, I have been recooping after having my shoulder fixed. That said, I wont be demanstrating much this fall, I hope the returning players remember what you learned well enough to pass on your knowledge. As alaways call me if you have questions - 414 258-6927.
Just a reminder we must have a very minimum of 20 consistent players that attend practice and are able to make the games. It is not safe to be playing down players or moving people constantly around the field. If the team gets up and running we will talk about fund raising ideas and tournaments. If we can't get the numbers we will find another team for those committed to playing.
This is your team so recruit players. The only requirements in recruiting is that they must be a female attending some high school, able to make practice/games, want to learn rugby and are willing to give 100%.

fund raising

2009-06-26T13:03:00.000-07:00

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

2009-06-24T17:12:00.001-07:00

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.

Mrs Watters

banquet

2009-05-26T17:15:00.001-07:00

The rugby banquet and awards night was a lot of fun. The slide shows were great to watch - boy how our little ruggers have grown! While it was fun to see the past year, at the same time it was sad to be saying good-bye to our beloved seniors. Our co-captains (Ellie and Sara K)have worked really hard not only at gaining rugby skills but also in helping to keep our team as a unit.

Mrs. Watters

Practice change

2009-05-26T17:21:00.000-07:00

This Thurs. practice has been cancelled and rescheduled for Friday. Many players are unable to make practice until after exams - per parent request. So to get ready for our LAST game this season, practice will be Fri. 4pm at Juneau. If you are unable to make practice please call. If you are unable to make the Sunday game DEFINATELY call so we know how many players we have. Game time is 1pm in Oak Creek by the high school. Dann will post directions after talking with the other coach.

Also, during open house in the fall several incoming freshman expressed interest in rugby. They have been invited to attend a practice NEXT Monday from 4-5pm. Afterward we will be having a pizza party for one last hurrah to our season. We would really like as many people as possible to come and talk with possible new players. If you know someone who may be interested in rugby in the fall - I don't care where they go as long as they can get to practices and the games - they are also welcome on Monday.
