Your Scrumhalf Connection - Women's Rugby Blog

The consequences of being away for a weekend are vast! Jeez, just getting caught up on my normal doings at the gym today. Sometimes I LOVE being a manager and sometimes it just plain sucks. Oh well, it pays the bills and more importantly pays the RUGBY FETISH I have. :)

Few tidbits I heard over the weekend:

• CU defeated Army in a Cup match. WOW! There have been some major upsets in the collegiate world in the last couple of weeks.
  
  
• Baton Rouge vs. Houston last week 7-20, not sure if it was a cup match or not.
  
  
• Support the Women's National 7s Team

• I already blogged about my Alumni weekend experience...but I was wondering about everyone else. Does your team celebrate an alumni weekend? Do you play rugby? Do you play 7's? Is drinking involved? Money? What funny rules do you have?
  
  I bet everyone's experience is slightly different! Share! Share!
