This year’s annual prize giving night will be held on the evening of 13th March 2019 at Lenzie Rugby Club. As well as looking back over the last year, this evening has always traditionally been a perfect opportunity to look forward to the season ahead with confidence. Drinks will be served, pies will be consumed, tall tales will be told, the quiz will be contested with fervour, and the odd prize might even be awarded. Our annual prize night is a good opportunity for new members to make new friends and, almost as importantly, to work out whose advice to seek out for the season ahead (usually those lifting a trophy or two!).
This year the following prizes will be awarded (for the 2018 season)
