This Saturday, June 25th we had our end of year Woodlands Rugby Party. Ed from the Sports Station graciously hosted the event for us and we all appreciate his generosity greatly. We started off the evening watching the New Zealand All Blacks pummel the British Lions.
After the game we made a presentation to the Montgomery County Women's Center in which we donated thousands of dollars worth of gift cards, clothing, baby items, toys, etc. Eva and Lisa were very appreciative and we look forward to a continued relationship with them and other community events throughout the year. We also raised over $200 to give to a Sam Houston Rugby Player who is in the hospital with lupus. We wish him the best of luck and hear that he is doing much better.
Then we gave out our rugby end of year awards:
Jay Lee took home Clubman of the Year for all of his off the field dedication to the club.
J.D. Shipley took home Most Improved Player of the Year
Tiaan Brand took home Club MVP for his outstanding play this year.
We also had a new award this year known as the Dave Jenkins Award. This award goes to the club member that has dedicated countless hours to the club and countless years of selfless dedication to the club. This year the first ever Dave Jenkins Award went to Philip Devos. Philip has been with the club for near a dozen years and has started at Tighthead Prop every step of the way.
Later on that evening we broke some glass as we took on some Karaoke...
All in all a great night and I can't wait to dominate next season...
Thank you all for coming out and your generous donations...
