Pete is organising a cricket tour to Knysna on the 22nd of November. It will be a once off game on one of the Pezula fairways. If you able to make it, please drop an email to both Gary and Sparky ( gary @shebeenboys.co.za & sparky @shebeenboys.co.za). Galetti Fourths members are free to join as well.

There’s been mentioned of another waterpolo game versus the Galetti Fourths. Suggested date has been set as either the 15th or 16th of November. If you keen, please drop and email to both Gary and Sparky again.

Rugby season is officially over. Touch will still however be held at Lutgensvale on Sundays at 15h30. Remember to keep fit boys (or at least try); the Social World Cup is around the corner!!

Most importantly, keep an eye on the website for other events (soccer, cricket, paintball, etc) that will be happening in the off season.

6-down season comes to an end

Gazza — Thu, 06 Dec 2007 06:58:34 +0000

This season’s 6-down team found themselves in the uncharted territory of the First Division and then later on the Super League. How we got there nobody knows (must’ve been our extreme talent) but the boys fought hard every Wednesday to try topple the top teams of the competition – unfortunately not having at least 3 Western Province or South African 6-down players in our team made it pretty difficult…

Besides that, well played guys!! Coming fourth (and beating the fourths.com) out of about 25 teams is awesome.

The next season will start on the 31st of January 2008. Anyone keen to participate please let Mike or myself know ASAP so that we can make arrangements.

6-Down Action

Last night saw the boys play their first game of 6-down. Having missed the first 3 fixtures due to internal league commitments it was bound to be an interesting game.

Of a squad of 14 players, only 3 arrived – not a good start. We somehow managed to scrape together a full team with 2 reserves, only to find out we were up against a super league team with 6-down springbok players as well as one ex-springbok, Robbie Fleck.

Due to this ‘mismatch’ we were given a 5 try head start and managed to keep this ‘lead’ until the final whistle.

Final score: 3 – 1 to Shark Cage which turns out to be 6 – 3 to Shebeen SSC
