No. 2, 31 March 2023
Dear
It's that time again, the club rugby season is upon us! Our Premier Men kick off their Swindale Shield campaign this Saturday when they host Avalon at Evans Bay Park; we look forward to seeing you on the sideline and at the clubrooms after the game. It's been a busy few months with our Sydney Development Tour and preparations for the season; this is the latest news from Marist St Pats...
2023 may be a season of transition with a new Premier Men's head coach and some exciting new talent to join an established Premier side. We preview the Premier Men's season... >>>
Our Development Squad returned from a successful tour of Sydney in early March that saw some great rugby played and relationships forged off the field... >>>
For some time now it's fair to say the goal posts at Evans Bay have 'fallen short'. That has all changed with new goal posts installed this week... >>>
Financially, Marist St Pats relies on sponsorship and members subscriptions in order to provide our community with the facilities to train, play and congregate as a club. We invite you to join us at a financial member in 2023... >>>
In a new initiative to build relationships across the grades, we are introducing the new 'Clubrooms Championship' which will see teams across the grades compete in social events at the clubrooms throughout the season... >>>
Our new line of Marist St Pats merchandise is now available to purchase through our supplier SAS. Merchandise can be pre-ordered by 2 April 2023 for dispatch in early May 2023... >>>
Around the traps
