Following the success of the inaugural Alumni Event in 2007,
the club executive is pleased to invite you to attend the
2008 event on Saturday May 10. The late spring/early summer
event hopefully removes the possibility of bad weather and
also offers everyone the opportunity to attend the Ralph Lee

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.

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 tradit ion
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

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.
