Gents, Tomorrow we open up our first game at Unami at 1pm. The first home match of the 2024 Spring season. The Albany Knicks are coming down with 2 sides to reignite an old rivalry. We need all hands on deck to help fill out our 2nd side. Calling all old boys, social players and recent retirees to bring your boots and help fill out our 2nd game, there are minutes for everyone. 1130am 1st IV Arrival 1pm 1st IV Kickoff (2nd IV Arrival) 2:30pm 2nd IV Kickoff For the Club, Coach DeLucia

Men's Practice Tonight

Gents, Thanks for the solid showing over the weekend. You boys played tough and gutted out terrible weather against a higher division playoff team. Up 10-3 at the half, I gave Monmouth back their red card loss of player and soon after our front row went down with injuries. You boys didn't give in and even after losing some backrow players and scrumhalf, you still gutted it out for a full 80 minutes. We came up short 28-10 but this baseline test was very productive. We have things to work on and improve, but we have even more to build off of. We need to finish trys, we need to finish tackles, we left 3 trys off the board with poor skills under pressure meters from the try line. Best part is all of this is easily fixable. We need everyone out at training. Tonight we will focus on skill work to begin with then progress and focus on rucking, scrums, line-outs, counter-attack, and bring it all together for a semi-opposed run through seeing players at different positions. We need everyone at training, we need all hands on deck. If you were only planning on coming Thursday please make every effort to be there tonight. Competition breeds success. Let's get after it tonight, looking forward to seeing everyone. For the Club, Coach DeLucia

Super Bowl Boxes

Nick Ballas is running a super bowl squares competition. $25 per entry with payouts at the end of each quarter of $150, $300, $150, and $400, respectively. Chose boxes and full rules are in the link below. He is donating the leftover money to UCRFC, which conveniently sidesteps a few gambling laws that could theoretically get UCRFC into some trouble if hosted directly. I think some people are not aware/don't understand this, which is why we're having trouble selling as many squares as prior years. Please consider entering the competition. Also, please share with whoever else you think might be interested (or old boys that may not be aware). I found this to be fairly easy to sell to around the office as well. Thank you, Tom Ross

Good Afternoon Gents, Just wanted to send out a quick wrap up on our season. It was a year that started off with the clubs foundation rocked with departures, discipline and turnover. You all bought in to the new systems and laid a solid foundation for the club to flourish for the foreseeable future. The core of this team is rock solid and I look forward to a spirited spring season where we build on our success and write another chapter in Unions rich history. Hopefully, we welcome back some of those that were not with us this year after hearing of all your successes! Thank you to Coach Taranto, Coach Erickson and Coach Smith for making this season a success. There is no more practice this season, but stay tuned for information about touch sessions to this fall into winter. We will put together a competitive and fun spring that will see us tested in preparation for Fall 24'. Please stay the course, recruit mates and remember always be the hammer not the nail.

Biggest Challenge of Season

Men, You are playing great rugby, wearing your heart on your sleeve and leaving it all on the pitch. This week we will stay away from contact in training and work on pattern of play. We need all available hands on deck, we are playing to retain sole position of first place without 5-6 starters. We will not be deterred, we shall draw the line in the sand and hold the line, controlling what we can control and that is our defense. I need every player to attend training tonight, we need to put the best foot forward and assemble a team that can withstand the upcoming obstacle and continue carving our path of success. Thursday's training will be at Rutgers, making tonight very important for us to run through our pattern of play. Remember early is on-time and on-time is late. For the Club, Coach DeLucia

All Hands on Deck

Gents, You've played inspiring rugby this season. You've overcome incredible odds, large roster turnover and have been incredibly coachable leading to your success. We have played good rugby and hang our hat on high quality defense. You have outscored opponents 90-18 thus far, yet we are far away from achieving our goals of an undefeated season and 1st place in our division. The next two weeks will be the most challenging as we are without 27% of our starting 15 for weddings and the world cup as we compete with Danbury and New Haven for 1st place. Now is not the time to be complacent, we will react-adapt-decide to overcome and not let it slow our aspirations. Next man up mentality, others must rise to the occasion. We will be shuffling different people at 9,10 & 15. If you feel you can play on our top side at any of these positions, please let it be known during training so we may get a proper look at you. Looking forward to getting after it tonight, please come to training, there is only 6-8 trainings left of the season. We need all hands on deck and must continue to develop and play as one. Always Together, Coach DeLucia

Mens Game vs Montclair 2pm

Rugby at Union County Celtic Fest Saturday Sept 9, 2023

Saturday, September 9th is the First Annual Union County Celtic Festival, hosted at Oak Ridge Park in Clark (136 Oak Ridge Road Clark, NJ 07066). The Festival will be featuring rugby games during the day and the Mudturtles will be involved in ALL of them. This is the the schedule of games: 10:00am - High School Boys 7s 11:00am - Women vs Long Island 1:00pm - Youth Flag 2:00pm - D3 Men vs Morris 4:30pm - D4 Men vs Princeton While players will be admitted to the festival free of charge, there will be a fee for all others. Friends and family can use the following link to get discounted tickets to the festival for $10 rather than $25 at the gate. https://fevogm.com/event/UnionCountyCelticFestivalPiper The code is good through Wednesday, 9/6 at midnight. For $10 the event will be well worth it. There is a lot on the festival grounds but it may be better to operate under the assumption that it will be full. Everyone should expect to park in the overflow area or additional offsite lot so allow a little extra time to arrive. A shuttle will bring us to the game and it isn’t far away. That this is an unfortunate, unavoidable downside to an otherwise awesome event.
