March 18-19 , 2006 - We've done this torunament since 1999.This is a terrific tournament that brings together over 50 rugby clubs for both men and women matches.The divisions included the Premier Division, Social Division, Old Boys and men and womens collegiant divsions as well as a womens club division.
This was a terrific tournament.The weather was nice Saturday, but cooler Sunday. No rain for either day. The Air Force Select won the mens premier division over the East Side Hyenas from Detroit (known as the Detroit Tradesmen). The score was 25-16. The Air Force Select is comprised of rugby players from the Armed Forces . The players are deployed from Iraq to come play rugby at the tournaments. They had to get back to Iraq right away after playing rugby in the tournament.
The players are well skilled in rugby and focus on conditioning which is essential in rugby .Also they have very good ball skills in passing and rucking and recycle the ball well, but under control without losing possession, a very important skill in rugby. The team in possession most of time usually wins the match. The Univ of Central Florida women won the womens collegiant bracket over Florida St.
One of the greatest plays we've ever seen occured at this tournament in 2005. 2005 premier Champion Worchester defeated Cincinatti Wolfhounds on the last play of the match by executing a drop kick from middle of the pitch about 50 meters away. This is one of the greatest plays recorded by Lineout Video,inc at a rugby event since we started in 1999.
