CRAB RACING
The Touch Club's Annual Crab Racing event will be held in conjunction with the Winter Competition presentation evening. We have moved to a new venue this year, which will guarantee that the night is even bigger and better than ever!
Cheap drinks and awesome tunes will make this a night to remember! So get your team mates together and come along and support the Touch Club.
TOGA PARTY PUB CRAWL
The first touch social event of 2008 is going to be A-mazing and must not be missed! Its a great opportunity to get to know your team mates and meet the rest of the touch crew. So, get your mates together, make the best toga possible (out of your bed sheets) and head on down to Newtown.
CRAB RACING FORM GUIDE
Unfortunately due to the outbreak of the "Crab Flu" the form guide will not be available until Saturday night! The first race jumps at 7.10pm, so it would be a good idea to arrive around 6.30pm which will allow you adequate time to study the form guide!
Presentations for the Winter Competitiion will occur between races.
Where: Friend In Hand Hotel, 58 Cowper St Glebe.
