There is a Race Night to be held on the 27th March 2010 at Hillside Hall. Tickets cost £8 each person and this includes a two course supper.

We do not have a drinks licence so please bring your own refreshments although there will be a glass of complimentary wine with your meal.

Tickets are available from Lisa Waghorn (01674 840545) and Vicki Christie (01674 840467).

Those wishing to sponsor any races at a cost of £20 please contact the above. Sponsors will be highlighted throughout the evening for their generosity.

Any donations of wine for prizes would be gratefully accepted before the evening.

Good hands from the micros !

P4/5 against Blairgowrie.

Last Sunday (29.11.9) saw about 150 children from Blairgowrie, Carnoustie and Montrose taking part in rugby at Montrose.

We played teams at all levels from P1 to S2 in what must have been the coldest day of the year so far!

We managed to field two teams at micros, two teams at P4/5 , one team at P6/7 with a combined side made up from all 3 teams also at P6/7.

Well done to everyone for taking part and a huge thank you to the ladies in the clubhouse for keeping us warm.

Training Cancelled Today

Due to the weather, we have decided to cancel Minis training this morning.

Next week is a mini tournament at Union Park with Carnoustie and Blarigowrie. Hopefully, it will have dried up by then...

Training Cancelled Today

Due to the rain and the forecast for yet more rain, we have taken the decision to cancel rugby training for Micros, P4/5s and P6/7s.

See you all next week at Montrose for matches against Brechin and Arbroath.

Panmure Tournament P4/5 & P6/7

Some of our P4/5s and P6/7s headed down to Broughty Ferry this weekend to take part in the Panmure Minis Tournament. Despite the earlier heavy rain, the conditions were near perfect .

Our P4/5's taking on Brechin.

The P4/5s took on teams from Brechin, Strathmore and the Madrascals from St Andrews. The tackling and running were much improved from their last outing and they only lost one game in a closely contested match against the eventual winners.

The P6/7 side joined up with Brechin to form a North Angus team. Like their younger counterparts, they demonstrated fantastic commitment that resulted in some well-worked tries and a very credible set of results.

During the tournament, a number of Montrose players offered to help out other teams that were light on players. This was really appreciated by the other coaches and showed excellent sportsmanship from the players.

Well done to all who took part.

Montrose "Do" Munster at Murrayfield

The P6/7 and S1/2 players that took part.

On Friday 23rd Oct , 18 players ( P6 to S2) and a few coaches/adults from Montrose Junior Rugby headed for Murrayfield in the rain. The Montrose players trained on the back pitches with Edinburgh players and SRU coaches for 1 hour with other selected clubs from across Scotland.

After a quick change in the bus, into tracksuits and jackets, we headed into the grounds for some well deserved food.

All the players were then ushered onto the main pitch to act as the guard of honour for the Edinburgh v Munster match. The kids stood on either side of the tunnel and watched the players run on for the start of the match.

Robbie MacDonald ( s1) was selected to act as a mascot for the Edinburgh team and got to meet all the players and have his photo taken with them prior to the match then he ran out onto the pitch with Edinburgh Captain , Mike Blair.

A huge thank you to all the adults (and Sam!) that helped look after all the players.
A big thank you goesto all the players for representing Montrose so well.

The kids at the match - Go Edinburgh !

The pitches at Panmure will be inspected at 8.30am tomorrow morning and they will let us know whether they are going ahead. For the P4, 5, 6 & 7s that are going to Panmure, we will let you know whether there is a tournament or training in Montrose by 9am Sunday.
