Recruitment Drive: Saturday 6th August

Recruitment, Social 1 Response »
Aug 012011

Gentlemen, Saturday the 6th of August see’s the Rhino Machine take over London once more. The annual tradition of a day of Internationals and a Recruitment crawl has been the highlight of the summer for Rhinos of the past. It’s an insane day out, Leaving many of the strongest Haringey has to offer legless by midday!
Gareth Jones (Recruitment Officer) has a host of games up his sleeve to keep us entertained between Matches – Everyone must bring a dice.

We have Rhino business cards and Posters for us to give out to potenital recruits and to pin up in pubs, please wear rhino stash. The day is about getting the Rhino brand out their, and sharing our love for the game with the masses. Past recruitment drives have been very successful, putting us in the best possible position coming into the new season.

The Itinerary is as follows:

**07.15** Meet at Finsbury Park Station for our journey west to Shepheards Bush, We will be leaving at 7.30 sharp as queues into the first destination can be a bit manic.

**8.35** Kickoff – New Zealand v Australia (Tri Nations) Venue – She Bu Walkie
Snakebite breakfast all around – With both sides giving the second-string Bokkas a hiding over the last two weeks, this is the most anticipated game of the year thus far. It is also hotly picked as a potential RWC Final preview. The return of the Carter vs Cooper battle and the winner of this weekends match up will probably go on to take the Bledisloe Cup and Tri Nations Trophy!

**1100** Team Meal – Weatherspoons – Shepherds Bush
We will make the most of a meal and a pint deal to set us up for an afternoon of fun.

We leave the Temple Walkie on foot. Heading slightly north.
Destination – Covent Garden. Depending on time and where we can get in. We will go to the ‘Bok Bar’, ‘The Porterhouse’ or ‘Walkabout – Covent Garden’

**1300** Kickoff England v Wales (RWC Warm-Up)
Six Nations Champions France play host to South Africa, Last years Tri-Nations champions flopped in the Autumn however with such a strong presence in the Super 14 by the Bulls and the Stormers the Saffas may prove to powerful for the youthful Cockerels.

It’s going to be an epic occasion so get involved.

Thing’s to remember:

Rhino top,
Oyster Card,
Dice,
Drinking Boots.

Be sure to rsvp and confirm your commitment.
