Our 1st double Header of the season is this weekend at Airport Lakes. Gentlemen, regardless of how many DIII players are present WE ARE GOING TO FIELD 2 TEAMS !! and play 2 different Fla teams at the same venue. It will be a great ORFC Saturday !!
After the DII Game our DIII team will be playing their 1st League game of the year !! We need YOU to either PLAY or come out and watch from the sideline.
We need any available old Boy players to help fill out the team!! The DIII team has a great chance to come out of Florida and challenge for the National DIII Championship.
Try and get to practice this week and help our club get over the hump!! We have had 26 - 33 at practise the last few weeks. We need a consistent 40 fit players to secure The Florida DII and DIII championships.
Thanks and hope to see you on Saturday
