Oregon RL- Salem Rugby Lague Club

Over the last few months I've been helping to establish rugby league here in Oregon. Currently there is only a few social media accounts available,there is a Facebook group and page and a Twitter account. 

we were able to hold our first meeting in Salem the state capital. It was a informal gathering no practice being held due to covid protocols. but today i did learn that we could still hold a "practice" but with only touch. 

Only seven players were able to arrive but that is not discouraging at all seeing as only advertisement was through online. Was notified that more players were tempting to arrive but had work priorities. Here's a bullet point of items that were discussed and things to come. 

- practice event to be held in 2-3 weeks

- name write in from players

- 2/27 top four names chosen

- club presidents and treasure to be selected for SRLC

- once name has been chosen and after practice finance figures will be made more concrete for players and club moving forward. 

-2-3 week's meeting to be held in Eugene/Springfield to engage potential players and set up another club. 

- 2/27 or 2/28 meeting to be held in Corvallis/Albany to try and also set up another club. 

There is huge excitement from everyone to get going and start practicing and playing. There's experience amongst the guys who are used to setting up events and financially securing enough funding.
