Canada Mens Sevens On The Road Again

Chauncey ("Waldo") O'Toole put in a brief cameo two weeks back with The Tricolor Vs Rowers and we assessed him being "short of a trot".  Turns out Chaunce had been under the gun with sprint training all week at Westhills! He's back in football after a layoff to focus on studies.  His last Sevens Tourney was in London, last year.  He has stayed in good shape and coach John comments that; "He adds that x-factor to our forwards."  We at CW, concur.

The squad for the Tokyo Tournament next weekend has been announced and the boys will be off on Monday and go with our best wishes.  The squad will be minus Mack (injury), Braid and Douglas - three rather large holes to fill, based on the play of these boys at the last two Tournaments. Whitey, Chauncey and Jake Webster (returning from injury) will replace the aforementioned. Coach John has been working on conditioning and notes individual bests with speed, endurance and the weights, key factors for the Sevens game.

Other squad members are; Yak Dala, Ciaran Hearn, Scholzy from Ceedub; Hammond, Dukey and Captain, Nate from UVic; Whitey, Webster and Mooner from JBA; Trainor from the Raven and Harry Jones from Caps.  Good to see Captain Canada, Morgan Williams, acting as Asst. Coach on this outing.  The boys will move on to Hong Kong at the end of the month for the next show on the circuit.
