We’re predicting a HUGE year at Lindfield Rugby Club in 2013, and what better way to burn off the Christmas hams and the silly season bellies than to come on down to pre-season training at Soldiers Memorial Oval.

Training for the entire club kicks off on Thursday 14th February from 7pm, and will continue every Tuesday and Thursday until we bring home the silverware in September.

559713_10151538558048942_1961192435_nGarry O’Shea was an absolute Legend of Lindfield Rugby Club, contributing immensely on and off the field. Garry was a true OLD SOLDIER and a true gentleman.

Garry played over 400 games for Lindfield and gave it his absolute all on every occasion. Garry’s presence will be sorely missed by everyone who had the pleasure of meeting him.

Our hearts and prayers go out to Garry’s loved ones at this very sad time. Garry’s funeral will be at Macquarie Crematorium at 10:30am next Wednesday 12th December 2012.RIP Garry, a true Old Soldier…

Back To Lindfield Day – Saturday 25th August

Posted on: August 22nd, 2012 by president No Comments

It’s time for the Club House corner of Soldiers Memorial Oval to host another shindig… And if Ladies Day is anything to go by, then it’s going to be EPIIIIC!!!.

On Saturday August 25th, the Lindfield lads will be playing their last home game of the 2012 season against local rivals Forest, and the Old Soldiers are keen to go out with a BANG!

On ‘Back To Lindfield Day’ we like to give a little bit back to the community we represent on the footy field each week, and with activities for the kids, and champagne rugby on the menu for the adults it’s going to be a real spectacle.

We’ll also have the infamous spit pumping, as well as $20 drink passes for the ladies which will entitle them to unlimited wine and champagne throughout the day.

At the conclusion of 1st Grade, the party will roll into the club house for the last time this year as we drink the bar dry before we’re transported to Cabana Bar for the party via another memorable bus trip.

It’s going to be a great day and everyone is more than welcome so make sure you GET AMONGST IT…

If you’re keen, register your interest on our Facebook Event Page…  http://www.facebook.com/events/101437853339972/

When? Saturday 25th August, midday till you fall asleep

Round Seventeen vs Oatley – The Bus is BACK!

Posted on: August 15th, 2012 by president No Comments

This weekend the Lindfield lads are heading down south to take on Oatley in the last away game of the season… and it would be rude not to get a bus there…

THE LINDFIELD BUS TRIP is always a highlight of any rugby season, especially the return journey after you smash your opposition to oblivion belting out “alouette” to your hearts content. This Saturday the bus will be departing the club house at 8:45am and arriving back after 1st Grade where we will have the bar stocked and the Bledisloe Cup playing on the big screen, GET INVOLVED! For those of you who don’t know, Oatley is a hecticly long drive from Lindfield so make sure you get on the bus. If you’re keen to reserve a seat let your coaches know BEFORE training on Thursday night. 

Aaaanyway, let’s get back to LADIES DAY! What an epic day on and off the field. A big thankyou to all those wonderful women who braved the wind and rain and turned up to make it the biggest Ladies Day of all time. Special thanks too to those who worked behind the scenes to make the day such a huge success…  Was a great day on the field too with the Colties (19-17) claiming a well deserved win and 1st Grade (75-14) posting it’s biggest victory in years. 4th Grade (10-10) shared the points, while 3rd Grade (7-40) and 2nd Grade (10-24) both fought valiantly in defeat.

Looking forward to some champagne rugby against the big boppers of Oatley this weekend, let’s hit ’em hard and run ’em ragged.

Where: H.V. Evatt Park, Forest Rd, Lugarno

Time: Colts 10:45am

4th Grade 12:00pm

3rd Grade 12:55pm

2nd Grade 2:00pm

1st Grade 3:15pm

OLD SOLDIAAAAAARRR!!!

Ps. In the hangover of Ladies Day, Saturday week (25th August) is Back To Lindfield Day, & it’s gonna be just as big as Ladies Day so make sure you get involved, for more information visit http://www.facebook.com/events/101437853339972/
