Shebeen Social Sports Club

Dear Shebeen, There has been a long wait between internal league matches. Given the nature of the break (SWC etc), I am sure you are all clamouring to get a vote in on who should get the Pink Pants for tonight’s game because EVERYONE did something stupid, no doubt. Despite claims by other Shebeen members, [...]

Dear Shebeen, The second half of the Internal League season gets under way today with a cracker of an encounter on the cards. With mixed performances defining the Shebeen campaign thus far, we are looking to hit the ground running with a win tonight! The last meeting of these 2 sides was in a short [...]

Dear Shebeen, As I walked on to the fields on Saturday, a feeling of intense excitement was coarsing over me as I realised, Derby Day had ARRIVED! Neither team ever wants to go down in one of these fixtures, and on this specific day, Shebeen wanted it that much more. From the outset, it was [...]

Dear Shebeen, It has come a little bit earlier than expected this year. And with very little trash talk from the Fourths.com (surprisingly). Perhaps their egos are a bit bruised after last year’s game where Shebeen pushed the Fourths.com for the duration, eventually going down in a nailbiting 10-7 ballgame. I do not think I [...]

Dear Shebeen, As we see ourselves hitting out against Kopano tonight to kick off the next phase of the group stages of the internal league, there is very little debate as to who the Pink Pants wearer will be this week. There were very few poor showings so the runner up spaces were not immediately [...]

Dear Shebeen, Tomorrow night, round 2 of the UCT internal league 2010 kicks off. After a tough first round with mixed results, Shebeen Boys are still very much in the hunt for some awesome silverware. With Kopano, Cobras and Smuts in our group, tomorrow’s outing is of huge importance and could put us in a [...]

Dear Shebeen, At Tunnel Parties we usually celebrate the good fortune of having a mythical creature from far, FAR away (Kommetjie) in our midst… Well, today we celebrate the birth of said creature, and hopefully many of us get to celebrate in true Been Boys style!! A happy Shebeen SSC birthday to Matthew “The Ogre” [...]

Dear Shebeen, In what will hopefully not be a habitual occurence, our Pink Pants winner from last week ended up in hospital after the clash with the Nadoes. For all of those that don’t know, Devon is fine. Aside from the concussion sidelining him for the next month, he was “really chuffed for the chill [...]

Dear Shebeen, Tonight we are playing for promotion into the Internal League A Division… Considering the fight I saw from the team last week I do not see this as being out of reach. But tonight, we really need to pull finger and play some entertaining Shebeen Boys rugby against a decent Panthers outfit! The [...]

Dear Shebeen Boys, As you all know, the Pink Pants Award is making a very strong comeback this season. Thanks to Karl for looking after them in the Marquard game so well. But alas, this partnership has come to an end and it is time to announce the next recipient of this very special ‘award’… [...]
