The U19 Girls Season Opening Day

There is still quite a bit of snow on the ground as we move into March. However, opening day for the spring season a little more than a fortnight away. On the weekend of March 24-25, DSHA opens its season with games against both Northshore and Vernon. The Norrhshore/DS match should be an exciting Match up: DSHA will be attempting to shake out the winter cobwebs as it gears up for another run at a national title at the NIT in May. Meanwhile, Northshore will be returning from sunny California and its second appearance in the Fullerton Youth International Rugby Tournament. This warm-weather tournament should provide a good head start on spring-season training for Northshore who finished in a three-way tie for third place in the Fall 2006 regular season play with a 4-3 record. On March 25, DSHA-B side will take on number 2 ranked Vernon. This should prove to be a real test of the DS-B as it encounters Vernon's 7-1 record A side, which is gearing up for its run at a Midwest title, and perhaps more.

Keep posted as we track down the latest match reports.
