BLRC All Over the Map & the Tables
In the next three days, 32 players from Burnaby Lake will take the pitch in National, Provincial and 7s competitions.
Five players from the women’s team have traveled to the island with the National Senior Women’s Team to prepare for the first of two matches vs. the United States as they build to the 2010 World Cup this September. Julia Sugawara, Kim Donaldson, Anna Schnell, Corrine Jacobson & Maria Gallo will play the first of two matches against the States this Monday.
The Lighthouse will be on the island on Saturday as well, as teams from both the men and women are entering into the JBAA Buccaneer tournament, the first of the BC Summer 7s series. The weeks of preparation will be put to the test as the competition will be fierce.
The men’s 7s team will be missing Sanaila Dawai who will be starting in the centres for the BC Bears game vs England Counties. Sana will be joined by club mates Lewis Hart and Scott Plummber and under the guidance of Mike James who returns as head coach of the BC team as their season gets underway at Klahanie on Saturday.
Best of luck to all the players and coaches representing the Club across the competitive stages.
