Deep South Rising
 

The Deep South Rugby Union is pleased to announce the resurrection of the Deep South Men’s Senior Select Touring Side for the Fall 2008.

 

Due to both a critical mass of talented, dedicated players and the ambitious objectives of a reenergized governing body, the Deep South Rugby Union administration has gone forward with an initiative to bring organized elite level rugby back to the union.

 

Selectors for the squad are Trip McCormick of New Orleans RFC, Phil Dembowski of Battleship, and John Fontenelle of Baton Rouge RFC. Key dates are as follows:

 

Saturday, Nov. 1: One-day Selection Camp (New Orleans)

 

• 8:30-9 am: Sign-in

• 9 am-12 pm: Introduction/Skills Session

• 12-2 pm: Lunch/Systems and Patterns Session at NORFC Clubhouse

• 2:30-4:30 pm: Team Skills

• 5:30 pm: Scrimmage

 

Friday, Nov. 7: Trip-planning, team meeting (Mobile)

 

• 8 pm: BRIEF (1 hour max.) meeting at hotel by Battleship Park to discuss arrangements for Atlanta

 
Saturday, Dec. 6: (Atlanta, GA) **SEC Championship Game in Atlanta
 

• Match vs. Atlanta Renegades

• Match vs. Atlanta Old White

 

January (date TBA): (New Orleans)

 

• Match vs. Mystic River RFC (A&B)


 
     Club coaches and administrators should contact Trip McCormick (504.289.4102; tmccormick@kingkrebs.com) with nominations for the November 1 camp. At-large players, please contact Trip directly (this system is not meant to be elitist in nature; it’s just much easier to organize if we can get a single list from each club). **Players MUST be available for Nov. 1 selection camp to be eligible**
 

     The goal of the Deep South Rugby Union is, first and foremost, to put forth a truly representative side of the best talent on offer in the region. Every effort has been made, and will continue to be made, to ensure that any qualified player who is CIPP registered within the union have an opportunity to represent the Deep South.

 

 

Please contact Trip with any questions.
