Anyone want to shoot Rugby ? - 12-23-2006, 10:38 AM


One of the best teams in the country is in Dallas,
http://www.quins.com/matches.asp
They are not playing this weekend and they will be playing away games for the first part of the month but when they play their next Dallas Match I would like to test out my skills on shooting some matches (looks like more than one match played per day by different levels of players).

I wanted to shoot rugby last year but by the time I asked about it the season was over, the Harlequins play less than 4 miles from my house so I probably will be doing most of my shooting there but may head over to other pitches to shoot if the field in Dallas isn't being used.

I am really good at searching for things on the net, one ex-business partner had spent and hour trying to find something and when he gave up he called across the room if I could find something on XXX and he stepped out to get a soft drink from the vending machine in the back. By the time he sat down I had sent him an email with if memory serves me right 3 links with info to answer his question. He asked me how I did that so quick and I just said I don't divulge my secrets.

Man if your friend cannot find info on "XXX" via the internet, he needs to throw away his computer. LOL

My brother played rugby in college- not sure how things were organized, but I think the team was AT the college but not associated with the college. More to the point, if you're looking for rugby, check local colleges as a start. (He was at Lamar University at the time).

I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I— I took the one less traveled by,
and then it petered out and I had to retrace my steps and wasted half a day.

If you look at the link on my second post http://www.strr.net/truclubs.asp it also includes what are basically college intramural teams I don't know of any NCAA Rugby teams at least down here in Texas.

So I assume that we as photographers would have full access to the sidelines? If so yeah I'd love to shoot some rugby!

Looked at all of the North Texas Teams and looks like no matches this weekend but that there is going to be a big tournament in Austin on 1-13.
