You can get it clearin’ a change room, you can get it moppin’ your brow, you can get it fillin’ a shed...matter of fact I got it now!

Put Saturday 19th November in your diary to come down to the club at 3pm to help create one of the best motivational spaces for our teams in 2012!

Because our teams enjoyed such success following their pre-game and half-time rev-ups from the coach, we are making sure that our change rooms are always clear and ready for the boys to use each week.

The boys get a great psychological advantage from using this hallowed space so come and spend an hour of your Saturday afternoon helping to move the equipment over to the new container and follow it up with an ice cold beer…

Email secretary@wakehurstyrugby.com.au if you’re free (the more the merrier) so we can put one (or two) on ice for you!

Each year a group of players and their dads go on the annual end of year camp to a large property out in western NSW for a long weekend of camping, fishing, and riding motor bikes.

It's a great way for the kids to get out and enjoy a different part of life, and to go on one last adventure with their team mates for the year.

This year was no different as the boys and their dads spent the last weekend in October doing all of the above, and of course in true father and son camping style, no showering either.

Thanks as always goes to a great Club supporter 'Woodie' for providing the venue and a majority of the bikes, to our Club Secretary Andrew Riggs for organising the event and being the pit crew for all bikes over the weekend, and to all the dads who came along and helped out.

Wales and Australia will look back on their semi-finals with contrasting emotions, but both have to face the same, cold reality that they will now have to wait another four years before they have the chance to lift the Webb Ellis Cup. All that remains for the two teams is the battle for bronze at Eden Park this Friday.

After a dismal performance against a pumped All Black side, the Wallabies' only hope is to salvage the Bronze and come home with a respectable third.

The Wakehurst Rugby Club AGM will be held on Thursday 20th October upstairs in the Clubhouse. Further details to follow shortly on time and agenda.

This is a great opportunity for you to get involved with your Club, as along with all normal matters arising, a portion of the meeting is allocated to appointing the Club committee for 2012 so if you haven't filled out your forms included in the 2011 Annual Reports handed out on presentation night, then you better be quick.

Our great Club is built on the tradition of 'community' so come along and be apart of the 2011 AGM.

Day 13 and after a great Fiji Tour we prepare for the trip home. This has been an experience the boys will never forget  and while we leave behind some new friends, we take with us memories that will last a lifetime.

We spent the day with one last shop, one last swim, and one last dinner before an early flight home. Click here for a full report

Day 9 and the Final Game Day had arrived.

An easy morning training run was followed by a pool session and no injuries in the pool this time. Any injuries and Bladsie would have cried – too many boys with stomach ailments. Changes in food, exhaustion, all contributing to their problems
