Lakefront 7's This Weekend

We're heading down to Veterans Park in Milwaukee this weekend to compete in the Lakefront 7s tournament. We'll be leaving from the Flemmings parking lot at 7:15 a.m. this Saturday!

The tournament runs from 8:00 a.m. until 6:00 pm., but we won't know specific game times until we arrive at the field.

We'll be competing against teams from Vernon and from St. Charles, Il. It should be a good day to run around in the sun.

Summer Tag Rugby

Just to keep your ball handling sharp (and introduce potential rookies to the sport), we will be holding informal practices to just play tag-rugby (non-contact) one night per week.

Any player, potential player or even mildly curious friend is welcome to join us.

WHERE: Brookfield Christian School
WHEN: Tuesday
TIME: 5:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m.

The Fall season schedule will be posted within the week so check back to see the details for our pre-season practices and Fall match schedule.

And remember... the off-season is the time to focus on personal fitness. By our individual efforts, we are collectively stronger.

End of the Season

It was a great end to our season with a win under the lights at home. The Bruisers dominated the visiting Norhshore team with an impressive 47-7. The A-side victory was a great way to close the season, as the Bruisers set their sights on the fall conference schedule.

The B-side struggled to stay on the board, suffering a 20-0 defeat. Although the B-side was not able to put points on the board against the athletic Northshore B-side, the Bruisers were dominate in the rucks and demonstrated a lot of clear potential for the fall.

If anyone has pictures lets post them.
