Hi all, a quick note, especially to the new folks, about weather.
Tropical Storm Hanna will be swinging through our rugby session on
Sunday. We have never yet called a session on account of rain, in
general we play through and enjoy the mud, however, I *will* call the
session if there are thunderstorms over Brooklyn.
The current forecast is that the storms will be passed us by 10am
Sunday. Saturday appears to be the brunt of it.
Therefore, if in doubt Sunday morning, be advised that if you can hear
thunder, we are probably cancelled. You can call my mobile Sunday
mornings to check on sessions: the number is
917.340.7227
The only game I can think of that was stopped for rain was a Llanelli
Munster game when the ref asked the players to please stop playing for
30 seconds until the hail went away:

Cheers all,
