Senior Women 2011 Season in Review

KPRFC — Tue, 03 Jan 2012 05:24:00 +0000

The Senior Women Panthers started off with a bang, registering close to 40 women. In only its third year since the program was re-instated, this is a great sign for the future of the program. With women of varying levels of experience, ranging from National team experience to completely new to the game, the program entered a team in the first division of the EORU and the Developmental Division of the EORU. With the help of our awesome coaching staff of Sean Dunleavy and Blake Wilson, we were whipped into shape for the upcoming season.

Throughout the regular season, the Panthers 1st team was dominant against all its league opponents, often winning by scores of 60 or more to nil. The Development side saw many more close games, but showed great heart and skill and managed to come away with wins ... Read More »

From start to finish, the 2011 Jr. Women’s program was a tremendous success. After admirable numbers in 2010, the 2011 season saw our registration numbers grow to just under 50, thanks in large part to the recruiting efforts, visibility and high school coaching efforts of many of our Sr. Women (Kait, Joc, Ash, Vic, Kat, Jayme – thank you!). With a core of returning U18 athletes and a large group of U16’s, the stage was set for a great summer of club rugby.

From the get-go, our team focus was on having an enjoyable and positive experience and challenging ourselves to work hard to develop our rugby skills and game sense. Early in the season the Jr. women showed such commitment to these goals that we would often have two or three full teams subbing on and off during a game ... Read More »
