No. 3, 21 July 2020
Dear
While the season may have started late, our teams are well and truly into the action now. Our Premiers sit third on the Swindale Shield with four wins and one loss, including a big win over Oriental-Rongotai last weekend. We're now gearing up for one of the biggest weekend's of the year with Old Timers Day this Saturday; we look forward to seeing you there...
With our 50th Jubilee celebrations have been postponed until 2021, Old Timers Day will take extra significance this year. Along with the usual events, we've got the book launch of C'mon Red! and live music with Mojo to end the night. All the details of the day's events can be found here... >>>
Tim Donoghue's new book C'mon Red! will have its official launch on 25 July at Old Timers Day. The book documents Marist St Pats' first 50 years and is 'a grassroots rugby story of volunteer attitude, spirit and passion exhibited by players, coaches, administrators, supporters and financial backers alike.' Join us for the official launch this Saturday where you can get your hands on a copy... >>>
Our Premiers showed they are a force to be reckoned with, firing another warning shot to the competition with a dominant win over our neighbours Oriental-Rongotai last weekend...
>>>
History was made last month when Marist St Pats' Netball team took the court for the first time. In true MSP fashion, the team is unbeaten after three matches and take to the court again this weekend...
>>>
Thank you to all who have contributed to the club as financial members in 2020. We have had some questions about when membership cards will be distributed. After some Covid-19 related delays we expect these to be available this week. If you are attending Old Timers Day you can collect your membership card at the clubrooms on Saturday; we will post any cards that aren't collected soon after...
