Time to get in shape! RUGBY STYLE!

Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday(w/no scheduled game) are personal fitness days (for now). Very shortly I will post suggested workouts, and some that are required for those days. Tues & Thurs You will now run the mountain 5 times and 4 laps around the field before we begin practice. Punctual attendance to practice is required. We have games coming up the end of January. See you at practice.

UVU a good first outing!

It seems a good tradition. The first game of every season has been vs. UVU. Saturday was a perfect rugby day the sun was out the wind stayed away, all in all optimal rugby day. St George started out strong scoring a try within the first few minutes of the match. That woke the Wolverines up then, and the match intensified. The Wolverines moved the ball well and put tremendous pressure on St George who struggled a bit with defensive rucking, It remained a very close game until the 3rd forty minute period. The wolverines saw St George come into their own game moving the ball decisively and effectively. Both Villi Hafoka, and Jordan Palmer scoring almost at will. The newcomers (Michael Mortensen and Tanner Torres) showed great motivation and determination in defense and offense, Welcome! All told the knights had a tremendous game holding their own against a nationally ranked university team. I am grateful for the young men who come ready to work, to practice, learn, and grow in this sport. Alis Aquilae!

2009... Knights ride again!

A new season starts... A chance to try new things, fix things that didn't work, a chance to improve. Conditioning and discipline are the focus this year. We are also trying out a new mentor program, which I anticipate as a win-win scenario. Recruiting is going to be a key to our success. We have some experience on the team now, and we expect those gentlemen to exceed the level of rugby knowledge and fitness that they achieved last season, as well as passing on that knowledge, fitness, and the "rugby bug" to their fellow teammates. We are thrilled for the members of our team who have gone on to serve on missions and know that they will be an asset wherever they are. A new season starts... A chance to look into our hearts and find that there is more of us than we knew. A chance to expand the circle of brotherhood. A chance to be a Knight!
