The First Annual Whangamata Golden Oldies Rugby festival kicked off with a meet and greet at the main sponsors for the tournament, Softy’s Bar & Grill, on Friday night, capped of with a fine win by Waikato on the big screen.

Saturday saw 150 players register from eight teams for the tournament from as far afield as Putaruru and Karaka, South Auckland.

85 year old Roy Brooks looks for the next tackler to fend on another rampaging run up the middle.

With a welcome from Mick Brien on behalf of the Whangamata Rugby Club, introductions of teams, referees and the patron of the local Toekickers, Bob Scott completed, Pete Peke did a traditional Maori blessing and the games were about to start.

Where do I start about such a great day had by all Rugby teams and Netballers at the first Bob Scott Rugby Festival!?

AT the start then - it started with the great photo taken by Bartley Internet and Graphics in which a very small time was turned into glossy poster given to all present teams and signed by our the one and only original bare foot toe kicker, and our patron, Bob Scott.

Sore bodies galore, rugby that would have graced the turf at the Cake Tin, that test win to wrap the night up, no deaths, what more could you want?

Stay tuned for match reports to follow, along with a fleet of photos of the action.
