This Has A Nice Look To It!
Today, we call upon The Sage on the Sidelines for a take on the weekend matches. “Saturday past saw CW men on the road for the first time this season. The Lomadome was the venue, facing a Reserve team that sat atop the table, undefeated and a Premier side in the cellar. The coaches, knowing...
Battle For the Best
UBCOB Ravens will arrive at Windsor tomorrow with a complete, allowable contingent of “international” rugby troubadours. Despite their unexpected setback last week it is still more than fair to label them as “The Best” – defending B.C. Champs as well as National Club Champs, ergo, favorites...
Weekend Predictions
CW is on the road this weekend when all three senior teams visit the Hub City. The women kick off at 11:15 a.m. at May Bennett Park as the Hornets host their home opener. It is hard to make a prediction with little information however CW women have played one on the road, losing to Comox. ...
Wednesday's Ruck & Maul

Playoff Prognostications
CW Men go into three weekend playoff matches. The Islanders (VIRU – Div2) travel to the mainland to play Meralomas. This is a tough result to predict as The Tricolours have not named their selection and the strength of the Lomas is unknown. I suppose, given the inconsistency of...
Prems Key Win in Seattle
The boys now sit firmly ensconsed in third place with two tough finishes against UBC and UVic., after a weekend that produced some topsy-turvy outcomes in the league, all to form, but mammoth scores. Seattle went out to a quick 18 - 0 lead and CW fought back to finally get ahead by a...
Four on the Road
Ceedub faces the burden of travel this weekend as all four senior teams face crucial matchups as the road to the playoffs escalates. The women travel to Capilanos to face the second placed team. An upset victory could put them in the driver’s seat, playoff-bound. Last time the teams met...
Resources Stretched Thin

Banner Day for Westshore – Diem Horribilis for CW!
The weather obliged for Westshore and CW on Saturday to make the occasion a great rugby day. Great it was for the Hosts, winning all four matches in fairly convincing fashion. The Westshore supporters group has grown and they were out in good force to support their men and women. The First...
Westshore Quadfecta – Local Derby
Westshore Rugby perhaps may not have sorted their name out fully as yet, following their successful migration from Gordon Head. We have read game reports that have described the club as Westshore RFC and Westshore Valhallians, a moniker they have not completely shaken. Oh, well, we at CW...
