Edmonton Clansmen Rugby Football Club

Happy Holidays from the Clansmen Rugby Club! Wishing you and yours a very Merry Christmas. May you find peace, love and joy this holiday season.

Women’s Wednesday Highlight: Jacqueline Middleton @jmiddl05 I miss Edmonton’s sunny days, beautiful river valley system, and surprisingly, it’s dry cold. But mostly, I miss all my teammates and twin, @jtcarmel who made my time in Edmonton so enjoyable and memorable. Jacquie came to us in 2019 and in just one short season left such a last impression with our women’s team and our club. We were sad to see her go last summer and are looking forward to the day when our paths ca...n cross again. We miss you, Jacquie! #womenswednesday #womensrugby #clanswomenrugby

Canada pulls off America’s 1 and is rewarded with NZ and the hosts France? Take America’s 2 and we get Eng, Jap and Arg? Either way let’s get to work!

Best matchup in Pool B so far?

2020 has been tough in a lot of ways but not nearly as tough as the one and only Davie Graham! Happy birthday on this 65th anniversary in the Airborne Regiment. We won’t mention your age!

Hey hey Clansmen family! Another Friday night is upon us and the kitchen & bar will be open for business as usual with a few slight changes to the schedule. Open @ 5 Food Last Call @ 9... Beverage Last Call @ 10 Doors Locked @ 11 All restrictions still in place; sign-in, sanitize, wear a mask to your table, and stay seated at your own table please (AKA no floating from table to table visiting).

Great way to spend a Saturday

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old: Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning ... We will remember them. - Laurence Binyon

Hey Rugby Fans! First off, thank you to all who showed up last Friday for our first real night of operations at the pub. It was a pretty amazing time. For those who were not able to join us, you sure missed out. BUT, I have good news; we will be doing this every Friday from now until you all stop coming and tomorrow night is one of those Fridays!!! There's beer in the fridge, wings in the oven, and tomorrow nights special will be a slice of pizza with a side of Caesar salad for $5. If you are planning on coming down, please remember we are still in a global pandemic. So masks on unless you are at your table and limit your table sizes to no more than 6 people. Normal distancing rules still apply. See you tomorrow :)

Our long awaited clubhouse Grand Opening is finally here! Come down on Saturday November 14 to check it all out. Ticket link in the description!

We asked you to #BleedBlue for the Clan Blood Drive initiative and you answered! From April 26th-May 26th we saw 15 clansmen and women donate approximately 6,750ml of blood, which can help save up to 45 lives. While our #BleedBlue campaign may have come to a close, we know the need for blood doesn’t stop! We hope you will continue to donate and please tag us @clansmen_rugby when you do. Thanks to all our incredible donors. Your actions truly make a difference. @canadaslifeline #bleedblue #savelives #community #together

It’s the final week and we’ve set our standards high - 6 days, 6 donors. Let’s do this Clan! #bleedblue #sixinsix #savelives #together #makeadifference #everymlcounts @canadaslifeline
