Revised Florida Cup Schedule

Here is the Final schedule - a few teams decided to drop out of the competition and there is damage to the second field.

With only one pitch there are changes to the kick off times of all the games and (from the FRU VP of Competition, Franklyn Williams) all the games on Saturday will be 30 minutes/half (running time) except for the Men’s Finals which will be full 40 minutes half.

Game #1 will be the Final for the Bowl between the Tridents B vs. Gainsville.

Please have all your teams check in at the registration tent so we can go over the CIPP & game rosters at least 30 minutes before the start of your match if not earlier as to FRU rules, we are doing this so that the games can start on time and your help is appreciated.

We have organized a great Social at a local bar with free beer & food plus discounts on drinks for all you rugger that are planning of enjoying our great city night life. Information will be available at the event tent. Team discounts are available.
