Dear
Club... An association of persons with some common interest {Oxford Dictionary}.
The 2015 season is underway and more than 450 senior and junior players are already registered with Marist St Pats to share a common interest that is at the heart of the club. But that common interest isn’t just about rugby either. Marist St Pats is a true family institution, a place of camaraderie and spirit.
As this edition of The Red Machine reaches your inbox, all teams are now underway and our Premier side finds themselves at the top of the table after four wins from four rounds of Swindale Shield action...
It's the second week that all teams are in action so we're kicking off the season in style. Join us for live music with
Mojo, a complimentary glass of bubbles for the ladies and an all round good time. We've even arranged shuttles to the city!...
