BRAMPTON RUGBY CLUB TASTE TESTING AT STEAMWHISTLE BREWERY       27th November 2007

 

On Saturday 3rd November, 2007, a small select group from Brampton Rugby Club accepted the invitation of sponsor Steamwhistle Brewery to embark on a taste testing excursion.

  

 In an effort to ensure that the quality of the product running from our taps meets the high standard that our club members have come to expect, several members of the Brampton club participated in an inspection tour. In what was clearly nothing less than an heroic effort, these brave souls “took one for the team” unsure of what the cost to health and vitality would be from field testing the product as early as 10 a.m. the morning of Saturday November 3,2007. We were led to believe that the purpose of the excursion was to report back to any club member who will listen, whether Steamwhistle pilsner served in the bottle at the Dam is better or worse that Steamwhistle pilsner served on tap at the brewery. Needless to say a large sample was required to determine the results.   MORE

ANNUAL RUGBY CAROL SING                   23rd November  2007
 

Brampton RFC has received the following message addressed to Fellow Rugby Types and Friends (that is if you have any.)  This is an appeal to all of you to come to the aid of The Annual Rugby Carol Sing.

 

Over the last few years the attendance at this occasion, one of the stable events in the local Rugby Calendar, has been getting smaller and smaller. It would be a great pity if this  tradition faded away altogether due to lack of interest and apathy by all of us.

 

34th  Annual  Rugby Carol Sing

 

Date: Friday December  21st, 2007  Time; 8:00 P.M.

 

Location : St Andrews Presbyterian Church @ the S.W. corner of  King St West and Simcoe St opposite the Roy Thompson Hall.

 

Requirements :No you do not have to be a Pavarotti.  MORE

CLUB HOLDS INAUGURAL BRAMPTON RFC HALL OF FAME AWARDS   3rd March 2007

 

Brampton Rugby Club marked its almost fifty years of existence with an inaugural Hall of Fame Reception at the Clubhouse on Friday evening, 2nd March 2007. With close to 100 Club players, builders and guests at the event, the evening was a resounding success and a platform for future events.

 

 

Even as guests were arriving, and Master of Ceremonies Matt Cappuccitti was warming up, an early award went to Chaylia Porter, MVP of the Senior Women's team who had been unable to attend the Awards banquet last Fall. With the commencement of the formal proceedings for the Hall of Fame, Mr. Peter Murphy was invited to speak to the first honorees for the Hall of Fame. The 2006 season saw the passing of Ralph "Pops" Lee and he was inducted posthumously, together with Don Llewellyn, a founder of the Club. Llewellyn was an RAF Spitfire pilot decorated for bravery with the DFC in the Second World War. He helped start the Brampton and Georgetown Clubs which eventually merged in 1963, and he played his last match for the Club in 1973 at Cedar Park vs Burlington. MORE
