Following the success of the Bermuda National Under 19 team, who recently won the Caribbean Championships, the 2010/11 Bermuda Rugby Season gets under way this Saturday [Sept 11] with the Annual Sandy’s Boat Club Tournament at Malabar. The tournament will see both the Renegades men and ladies teams hoping to defend their crowns from last season. All games are at Moresby Plain Field, Ireland Island, Dockyard, and entrance is free.
Sandy’s Boat Club tournament is the annual season opening tournament, in which each team plays each other once over the course of a grueling day of rugby. All four clubs will be using it to gauge exactly where their preparations for the league are at, what level of fitness they are currently at and also is a chance to assess any new players. It promises to be an excellent day of rugby action.
The schedule for the day is as follows:

• 1 Renegades V Teachers 12:30 PM
• 2 Mariners V Police 1:10 PM
