The Final Game

Here is the match schedule for the matches on Sunday, October 28, 2007, at Nagawaukee Park in Delafield (the park is 1/4 mile North of I-94 off of the Hwy. 83 exit):

7th Place Match 10:30am Oak Creek v. Northshore
5th Place Match 12pm Kettle Moraine v. Brookfield
3rd Place Match 1:30pm TBD
State Championship 3:00pm TBD

All matches will be played at Nagawaukee Park in Delafield.

The final spots depend upon the results of matches (DS v. Muskego and CMH v. Vernon).

We play at Noon on Sunday. All players (and your coach) should be there at 11:00 a.m. to warm-up. Following our match, I encourage all the players to stick around and cheer for your favorite competitor in the final two matches. It should be a great day of rugby. Hopefully the weather will cooperate.

Also, if you volunteered to help-out at the final, please be flexible and simply lend a hand where needed. I do not have additional information yet, but my understanding is that they will need help staffing the concession stand during the day. Even though the finals weekend is hosted by Kettle Moraine, the event is for and by the whole of Wisconsin's girls rugby, so let's try and be as supportive as we can of this first attempt at an organized finals weekend.

Post-Match Hospitality for Oct. 21

Steve L. (Liza's dad) suggested the following for the post-match hospitality this weekend:

How about we do a chili party like we have the last couple of years. If we could get 5 or 6 parents to cook a pot of chili (one vegetarian if
possible), I will cook and bring all the noodles and some condiments
like, peppers, oyster crackers etc. and I will pick up all the drinks
(water, Gatoaid, etc). I will also bring bowls and forks.

So the other things that need to be brought:

Chili - 5 or 6 pots
Deserts
Condiments like Cheese, Sour Cream, Onions, Etc.
Fruit
More Deserts

Let me know if I forgot anything.

This sounds like a good idea to me. Please email the list-serv, Steve or me to follow-up on the other items. As always, thank you for everyone's efforts.

Map To Minooka Park

Below is a map which takes you from Bluemound Rd. in Brookfield to Minooka Park which is located just of of County Rd. Y in Waukesha. This is a county park, so there is an admission charge per card load. I think it is around $5. This is the same field that the Bruisers played some of our home games on last spring.

Kick-off is at 1:30. The Team should be on the pitch, ready to warm up at 12:30.
