Introducing the Balmy Beach Old Boys (BBOBs) – For the 2025 Rugby season, we are starting a new Old Boys team at Balmy Beach. We will be called the Balmy Old Boys or BOBS for short. We have set up a WhatsApp group for anyone interested in playing, watching or hearing about the BOBS. If you are interested in being added, email chrisjhewitt37@gmail.com with your phone #, and we’ll add you.
Here are the key points…
- Players need to be over 35 or older in 2025 (younger players may be considered if they are aging terribly)
- We will have light schedule, with most games in September after the Senior Men’s regular season is complete
- We have a variety of registration options available
- We intend to have a large roster of players so that you can play as much or as little as you would like
- Training will be limited to brief warm-ups 15 minutes prior to kick-off
- The games are slower and less competitive than Senior Men’s, and all levels of ability are welcome
- Old Boys Rugby has a greater focus on the social side and we will be ensuring that we host our opponents well!
Fixtures:
Depending on interest, we may look to secure some other games, but here is our current schedule…
- Thursday June 5th – @ Home vs Oakville (part of 70th Anniversary Celebrations)
- Sunday June 15th – @ Home vs NOBS
- Saturday September 6th – @ Burlington, NOBS tournament
- Sunday, September 21st – @ Home GITS
- Saturday October 4th – Coburg Saxon Old Boys Tournament
Registration Options will be coming shortly.
If you are not a member of the Club or Rugby section – Please contact chrisjhewitt37@gmail.com directly and we can share some options
We are looking forward to running/walking around with everyone this year. UTB! Your Heroes, Claude (The Dude) and Hewitt (Tooth)
