Head
coach of the BC Elite Youth Sevens program Shane Thompson is holding a series
of open camps to identify players for the upcoming 2011 Western Games.
All
male players born in 1995 are invited to either a trial held in Vancouver at
UBC’s Stadium Field or at UVic’s Wallace Field.
The
Western Canada Games, scheduled for August 5-14 in Kamloops, BC, will feature
rugby sevens instead of the more traditional 15-a-side game. To prepare for the
upcoming season, Thompson is hoping to identify more rugby players capable of
playing the high-tempo, abbreviated version of rugby.
