Well done to the P6 squad who added to their success on the 'Spring' circuit by winning the final tournament of the year at Selkirk a week past Sunday.

 Please remember the parent and coaches sponsored walk on May the 24th leaving Netherdale at 9.15am. If you require more details please contact Richard Forsyth on 01896 755003.

7th May

Last Saturday was the final training session for the Mini's in 2008. A big thanks to all the players, coaches and helpers who have made this a very successful season. With numbers increasing steadily, the future of Gala rugby should be secure. Good luck to all the players from P7 who leave the Mini's and move on to Galashiels Academy and Gala Red Triangle.
Please also remember the coaches and parents sponsored walk on the 24th of May. Cars leave Netherdale at 9 am and we hope to return to Gala mid afternoon. Without the support of the walkers and the money they raise a strain would be put on the finances of the club. Hopefully there will be a good turnout of parents, coaches and friends on the day.
The Primary Seven dinner will take place on Friday 16th May at Netherdale, all invites are in the post. Thanks again to the Mini Maroons and Gala Rugby for supporting this event. Speaker’s, this year are Andy Mclean, Ritchie Gray & Malcolm Changleng.  Remember replies for the P7 dinner should be sent back to Ian Millar at Netherdale by the 8th of May.

In total over 400 children will be taking part in what has become a very successful annual event. The first ties are at 1pm, please come down and enjoy an afternoon of fast, open, exciting rugby.

 Training will be as normal at Netherdale on Saturday morning. We are hoping for a good turnout in order that everybody can play on Sunday.

A mixed P5/6 game will take place on Saturday prior to the main match, details will be confirmed at training at training.

Plans are well under way for our annual sponsored walk. This year the walk will be on the 24th of May and will be from Traquair to the Salmon via the 3 Brethren. This is always a good day out and helps raise valuable funds for the Mini's. With over 140 children now registered at Netherdale, a good turnout of parents and friends is expected. Full details will be given out to the children at training by the end of March.

11 February

Sunday saw teams from P3 to P7 travel to Dunbar. Despite Peebles pulling out at the last minute, all the teams got plenty of game time playing against Dunbar as well as, in some cases, teams from Gala. Well done to all who played.

There are plenty of fixtures coming up over the next couple of weeks. This Sunday we have arranged an extra fixture against Stewarts Melville. We intend to leave around 10am on Sunday morning. Teams will be selected at training on Saturday morning. 

 The following Saturday, February 23rd, the David Loughton Memorial Tournament is scheduled to take place at Netherdale. This tournament involves P7 teams only from all across the Borders. Gala will be entering 2 teams so a good turnout at training this week is required.
