Rugby Season 2009/2010 is here!

September 5th, 2009

Finally the 2009/2010 Rugby season has started, no more talk of football.

Last night I watched the first game from the Magners League live on Scum V, Cardiff Blues v Edinburgh at the new Cardiff City Stadium home. . An average game with Cardiff making lots of mistakes, they struggled in the first half but managed a last minute try, missed the conversion and ended losing 21 – 22.

I was really hoping to watch the Ospreys play against Connacht, I will just have to wait for the highlights from Scrum V on Sunday. Reading the reviews the Ospreys had a great game winning 12 – 19.

Sport of the day.

September 4th, 2009

Since moving to Germany the family have been doing many sport activities, these include Rollerblading, Cycling and winter Skiing.

Last year I went to watch an old-boys Rugby tournament and enjoyed it very much, I got chatting to one of the players and was invited to join them for training.

One year on and I have played in several games and go training regular.

Our youngest son, Mark, has also been getting involved in the Rugby training and in August 2009 started training with Frankfurt SC 1880 U18s. Looking forward to watching him in his first game!

Now that we have a dog the main activity will be walking.
