With the final results in, Purple and Scarlet tied for league points. In head to head competition, Purple and Scarlet traded victories. The final tie breaker is higher differential between points scored versus points against. Despite the very close competition, Scarlet edges out Purple to win the innaugural Brookfield Tag Rugby Cup.

I hope that this is the start of a new, fun tradition. If players have any comments on how the Tag Rugby "season" went, please let me know. This was a first run for us and I am sure there is stuff we can improve on. I was very pleased with the level of creative ball handling and support running which I saw on the field.

Now, let's get ready for Spring!

With 3 weeks left to play, every team will get a re-match, so the field is still wide open as the first Brookfield Tag Cup competition heads in to the second half of the season.

Tag Starts On Monday

Our winter season starts on Monday, January 7, 2008 from 3:30 to 6:00. If anyone still needs directions to the Brookfield Indoor Soccer Complex (the BISC), they can be found at the BISC's website.
