But when the ball was out, the Follow ' s connection with help from Eric Morgan and John Da Re kept the pressure on. It was a very successful season due to the concentrated efforts of our illustrious coach, Rev. Stu. Many thanks for another great sea- son. Fortunately there was no ab- sence of the main factor which was that everyone had good, clean fun. After all, that ' s what Rugby is about. Stephan Rockett

For the fifth time in the last six years the First XV has retained the ISAA Rugby Championship. It is necessary to recognize that this re- maricable record of success is in fact owing to an equally remark- able expenditure of time and effort by our coach - Mr. Washington. This valuable asset, in conjunc- tion with the able captaincy of Graham Leggat led to a team at- mosphere of spirit, co-operation and a keen desire to win which cul- minated in success. The team ' s vic- tories vouchsafe these statements: ISAA Champions, Ontario seven- aside Champions, and perhaps least - or more importantly, de- pending on your point of view - undisputed holders of Oakville rugger supremacy. Not to be for- gotten is our sixth place finish in the World seven-aside tournament at Rossiynn Park during our Eng- land rugby tour. ENGLAND TOUR There is a lot to remember about the England trip. The most out- standing of which is the beer that we drank and the hospitality we re- ceived. To top it all off, we even won a few games, contrary to ex- pectations. One could write pages on the lit- tle anecdotes that really made the tour so remarkable. There was Tim up at the crack of Dawn two nights running, the wild sing-songs at the Bull ' s Head, the coarse rugby songs from Cockermouth, and the profound wisdom of Obtuse Roge. There was Tittles showing us how to disco at Y.M.C.A. marvelling at the punk rockers at The Bell, and World War III at the naval base. There were hundreds of these lit- tle things that we will remember for the rest of our lives. We learned a lot about rugby, and even set the world on edge by being one of the surprises of the World seven ' s tournament, just losing to Scotland 20-16 in our first ever seven-aside match. Overall, it was a tremendous ex- perience and a lot of fun. ONTARIO SEVEN ' S TOURNAMENT Despite appalling weather, poor organization and conditions, we managed to rise to the occasion to show our rugby supremacy. We needed to win only four times for our title, 26-6, 36-0, 18-0 and 40-0 in the final. Previous to each game our opponents laughed mockingly at our lack of size. However to their chagrin and our delight we met little resistance, and trophies and plaques were waiting for us at the side of the field at the end of the game. The U17 side, due to inexperi- ence, had a rather slow start. Dur- ing the first two or three weeks of the season we suffered most of our defeats. But towards the end the team, with more confidence and experience, we put it all together. The forwards did more than their share of hard works.
