Training:
Generally training is Always ON. rain, snow or shine, and will go as scheduled.
You must dress appropriately (I mean this. When it is cold and you are exposed,
you are not ready to engage in the kind of activities we expect and I do not want
you to show up in thin shirts, shorts and wee sockets. There are occasions. when
you are standing and listening..  Buying the Hornet track pants and top is good.
Touques etc. You must have boots, mouth guard, other protective equipment is
not neccesary but why not use it? Invest in some protection.
Wednesday 6:30 – 8:00 pm

Upcoming Events
Training Monday and Wednesday evenings 6:30 - 8 pm for 15's Begins April. Stay tuned.

If you can not make a training session or game, let us know, we do count on you being there for all of the sessions. I understand that there will be times when you have to miss. Fine. Just let us know.

History:

Past U16 Hornets have a proud and respected reputation as a solid side. Last year several players made the Provincial team and nine hornets played in the Alberta Summer Games. A fantastic opportunity for these players. Hard work is rewarded. Good job lads.

Last year in 2008, we will build on past teams success and add new players from the U14 side (seven of which made the U14 provincial team) into what should be a very solid team.

Strength, effort and dedication are expected and encouraged again this year, your coaches want your experience to be enjoyable. I believe at the U16 game you should have a decent level of fitness coming in. From our first practice in April to our last league games in July you are expected to work hard. Sure we'll have fun, sure you'll get dirty, sure you'll get a bruise, this is a tough but immensely enjoyable game to play and watch.

You will gain confidence, skills, get fit and meet friends that could last a lifetime. If you want to be the best rugby player you can be, then you have come to the right place.

Also this year a weekend tour has been budgeted for, more info on this is forthcoming.

See you round the pitch.
