My husband and I had the pleasure of attending the U14 rugby game on Saturday in Oshawa and I must pass along our compliments to the Coach and the entire team. The team conducted themselves in such a professional manner right from the minute they stepped off the bus. The boys are all to be commended as they were great ambassadors for Bermuda and the Coach is to be thanked and congratulated on the great job of putting together such a wonderful team. All the hard work that went into training for this event was so evident when the team took to the field. They were co-ordinated in their game plan and communicated so beautifully with each other that even spectators from the opposing team commented upon this fact. Once again, thanks for such a fun experience as we truly enjoyed the game and seeing all these fine young men having such a wonderful adventure.
I too would like to add my Sincere gratitude for being part of the Coaching Staff of Coach Patrick Calow, Coach Nick Ball and Coach Keith Hodgkins in the development of the Boys U14s Bermuda National Team. We all watched 6 months of training bring a fantastic result and an athletic discipline of hard work and controlled aggression.
I would to extend my sincere thank you to All the parents of these athletes that made sure they where able to come to practice rain blow or shine and to Weight Training(provided by Magnum Power Force Gym.)Especially to Azuree Williams for making sure all the parents where kept informed with all information leading up to the tour.
