The Ebb Tide Rugby Football Club is the oldest continuously operating Over-40 rugby club in British Columbia, Canada. We have active players between the ages of 38 and 70's and active social members well into their 80's.  Social members and visitors are welcome to join us at our regular Thursday evening run-around.  Ebb Tide is a member of the Pacific Northwest Over 40's Rugby Union.

Players are eligible to play at 38 years.

The club will be hosting our annual awards night, on Thursday June 9th, in the tasting room at Moon Under Water. The room is reserved for 6:30, with awards at 7:30ish. Our run that evening will be at MacAulay Elementary in Esquimalt.

The AGM will be held on Thursday, June 2 at Windsor Park immediately following the run around. It will be outside at the north end of the pavilion, the same location as last year. The following executive position are up for election this year:

Two year terms

  • Secretary – taking meeting minutes and managing club records
  • Vice President – lead on scheduling and fixtures during the season
  • Treasurer – managing the club finances
  • Social Director – overseeing club social events and organizing meal for hostings after home games
  • Quartermaster – managing club jerseys, shorts and other gear

One year terms

  • Registrar – overseeing online registration process
  • Captain – providing leadership on and off the field

Some incumbents are willing to stand again for re-election and others are stepping down. Regardless, all members are welcome to consider standing for any of the positions, or nominating someone that they consider to be a good candidate.

If you are interested in any of the positions, feel free to contact me or the current Director serving in that position for further information.

Yours in rugby

Good news everyone! BCRU has issued the following direction: Daily Attestations removed
"With the Mandatory Vaccination Policy implemented, we are able to remove this risk management step from our protocols. We will remove this process from the Sportlomo system and from Monday, administrators and participants will no longer need to complete this step to attend in-person rugby activities."
However a couple of reminders going forward:

  • If you feel unwell, don’t come to a practice or game
  • If you feel symptoms and test positive for COVID soon after a practice or game please let Darren know so we can inform players that may have been exposed

Carry on!
