Message from Club Chair: Lorna Meads
Dear All,
Please see below. All our games on the 17 October will be at HKFC.
The day will be a full on family day with face painting, balloons, bouncy
castle etc in very safe contained space and grown ups can enjoy the rugby
(bonus!).
It's for a very worthy cause, one that we have all been touched by either
directly or indirectly, and it will be a great night. Would be really good
to see some support for an event which is actually, a day's worth of good rugby
and camaraderie. Realistically, we are the best clubs on and off the
paddock, I sincerely hope that we, as DeA, can make a presence.
It will be a great day followed by an even better evening. What
better cause AND, time to put those glad rags on in between the summer and
Christmas lull!
As you are aware Rugby players from the
Hong Kong Football Club will be in pink when they scrum down against
opposition as part of a fund-raising drive to support breast cancer awareness.
All seven senior teams from the HKFC’s Rugby Section will wear a
special pink kit for their league fixtures on 17th October, which
will be followed by a black tie ‘Pretty in Pink Ball’ in the evening.
The day hopes to raise more than HK$200,000 for the Hong Kong Breast
Cancer Foundation.
