Rosthern Longhorns Enjoy Exhibition Game vs. Hafford

The Rosthern Longhorns travelled to Hafford on Thursday, Oct. 22 to play an exhibition game against the Hafford Vikings. The Longhorns won the game but that was secondary. The purpose of the game was to keep sharp for the upcoming provincial playoffs as well as give all players on the team game action.

RJC 0 - Carlton A 4

This was great practice for our team as we head into the playoffs. Carlton A is one of the best teams in the province and we played them head to head. They scored three in the first half and after we made some adjustments we held them to one in the second. Kim made some outstanding saves.

RJC hosts the Alumni Tournament

Re-living the 'Glory Days'

On the past weekend, the alumni hosted their annual fall tournament with volleyball, soccer and football games all occurring. In the volleyball tournament there were 4 guys teams and 5 girls teams participating. After some phenomenal volleyball play and abundant use of A5-35, champions were crowned. (but not really, they were just more sore) The venerable staff team won the guys side (with only one ringer this year) and the most not old team and yet not young team won the girls side. Great fun was had by all. In the soccer and football games, many of the younger alumni and a few of the older ones came out and showed their fancy footwork, speed and scoring touches on a bright, sunny October day. Can't wait to do it again!
