Newsletter (5) for the 2010 Bondi Rugby Tens Tournament
Twenty seven teams are now settled for the fifth Bondi 10’s Rugby Tournament, to be held on 12th & 13th February 2010. We have 5 new teams in the tournament, with a special welcome to the South Sea Flyers, all the way from Fiji, and Baron’s Cairns Trinity.
Only a couple of teams have returned their TEAM LISTS to me, indicating the mode of insurance. This particularly important for SOCIAL teams, as I will need to get them sanctioned by NSW Rugby. Send your list of 20 players on the attached ARU Team sheet by e-mail anrobert@bigpond.net.au or fax (02 9664 3817) showing, under “ARU member no”, either:
The player’s Team and ARU 2009/2010 ARU Registration Number; or
Print COW - GATES. For each player insured by Cow-Gates we require a payment of $10 insurance premium. NSW Rugby will require assurance that steps are in place to pay the $10 for each player. Please pay the insurance premium into the same account used for your registration, but mark it “CLUB NAME:COW-GATES”
It is essential that Team Managers do this BEFORE the Tournament, and not wait until competition day. If you require help with your ARU Registration Numbers, contact Tim Richards at tim@rugby.net.au.
Draw for Day 1 (Round Robin) on Friday 12th February is:
A note from the referees about rule changes that will apply
“A number of the ELV's have been scrapped by the IRB. The key areas of change are:
- Revert to penalties for offences at the tackle and ruck-no more free kicks.
- The maul can no longer be collapsed.
- The offside lines at scrum will remain 5 metres back
- No gain in ground from a kick out on the full after putting the ball back into your own 22
- Can throw the ball backwards at a quick throw in.
Basically, we are back to where we were in 2008 except for the scrum offside lines, kicking out on the full and quick throw in changes.”
E-mail anrobert@bigpond.net.au whether or not you are bringing a shade tent. If you need to hire one, contact Moreton Hire at dan.morahan@moreton.net.au or mobile 0428 987 181.
Bondi Disco After-Party (see flyer-attached) is payment at the door-no pre-purchase this year; circulate this Newsletter to your players & mates.
