We are scheduled to play two games against UF this Saturday, Sept 6 in Gainesville.
GAMES:
Saturday is UF’S Old Boy Day for the Fall, and they will have OB’S who will be more than interested to play with us in the B-game, so we won’t need to play a full two games. UF will also have several A and B team guys who can help out if need be.
GAME TIMES: A side at 12.00 pm and the B side at 1.30 pm – we should be done by 3.00 pm.
DIRECTIONS:
Take the FLORIDA TPKE NORTH going onto I-75 N to Gainesville
Take the SR-121 N exit (EXIT 382) toward GAINESVILLE.
Turn LEFT onto FL-121 N/SW WILLISTON RD
IT IS A QUICK LEFT onto FL-121 N/SW 34TH ST.
You THEN travel NORTH for 2.4 miles
Turn RIGHT onto HULL RD after crossing ARCHER
Then turn LEFT immediately onto BLEDSOE DR
The field is UVS field. It is behind sand volleyball courts that will be on your immediate left once you turn right onto Hull Road. It will have posts up and you really cannot possibly miss it.
FIELD ADDRESS: 367-369 Bledsoe Dr Gainesville, FL 32603
Mapquest Directions
Note: The estimated driving time is 2 hours. However, bear in mind that UF host U Miami later that evening in football so there will be plenty of traffic heading to Gainesville on Saturday

The Rugby Scrimmage this Saturday has been CANCELLED due to waterlogged fields. The City of Orlando has closed their parks through Sunday night.
I have approached Brevard and Gainesville about trying to reschedule for next weekend but it is the Labor Day Weekend. I only have a field available on the Sunday if it is hosted in Orlando but have asked if either Brevard or Gainesville could possibly host it on the Saturday if they want a game.
