This week is a busy week for the Canowindra Tigers with their club launch on this Easter Saturday, 31st March. It will be held at the club sponsor, The Royal Hotel and Tommy Jeff’s Montrose House. John and Tommy have been working closely with the Tigers club President, Andrew Whatman, planning the day to ensure it all runs smoothly. The day is open to all junior and senior league players, their partners, wives, husbands and their families and of course club sponsors and supporters. There will be a jumping castle, BBQ, Easter Egg hunt for the younger ones and face painting and a Easter Raffle. The day will start at 12 midday, with lunch at 1pm. Last Saturday the Tigers travelled to Manildra to play in the Woodbridge Cup 10’s Competition. In our first game we defeated Cargo 10 – 4 and were defeated by Eugowra 17-8 in our second game. These games were a good hit out before the commencement
of the season with promising signs for the season ahead.
We are looking forward to a great 2018 season under new coach, Dan Barclay. A number of past players have returned to add to our impressive playing roster. The Woodbridge Cup Competition starts Friday night, 6th April where we host our old rivals, Cargo. The night will commence with Ladies League Tag at 6.30pm followed by First Grade at 7.45pm. Canteen and Bar facilities will be available.
