Sunday Touch Rugby will restart on 9th January

After a December and Christmas break, we'll be restarting Touch Rugby on Sunday 9th January at the new earlier time of 2pm-3.30pm.

It's cold, so bring base layers, water to drink and boots.  And as we'll be playing for just 90 mins, please try and get there for a prompt start at 2pm.

Hope to see you there soon.

Training at Tiller Road Gym Tonight from 7:30pm

Folks,

Given the part of the lower paddock best covered by lights is still under snow and we need to maintain the paddock for the rest of the season, training will take place at Tiller Leisure Centre (Tiller Rd, London, E14 8PX) tonight at the usual time of 7:30pm.

Regards,

Millwall Player Success at Dubai 7's

Dubai 7s

Despite heavy snow cancelling the rugby in London, Millwall first team player James Reilly was involved in Rugby of the Sevens variety over in Dubai this weekend for the annual Dubai Sevens. He won the Invitational Open category with the Wooden Spoon Blues, a charity team for disabled and disadvantaged children.

The Wooden Spoon Blues were undefeated in Dubai and finished their group with 9 points. The team then went on to win their Quarter final and beat Susies Christina Noble 26-5 in the Semi final. The Wooden Spoon Blues then retained their title won last year by overcoming Pyrenees 7's 24 - 12 in the final on pitch one, in front of more than 35000 fans from around the world, including two Millwall players, Ceri Thomas and Mike Taylor.

Big congratulations to James and his team. More can be found out about the Wooden Spoon charity by clicking here

No touch rugby in December

There will be no Sunday touch rugby this week owing to the weather.

We anticipate that touch rugby will not run during December in view of other commitments people typically have at this time of year.

In January touch will recommence on 2nd or 9th January (to be confirmed) at the new earlier time of 2pm-3.30pm.

Adult training tonight is cancelled

In view of the snow making transport difficult and travel less safe than otherwise, coach Dave has cancelled Thursday Training tonight.
