It is with great pride that I am considered to help OHCF Rugby achieve its goal of raising awareness of our great game. The opportunity to reach out and teach those young student athletes is exciting. Having been involved in this game for some 45 years as a player, a team selecter and as a coach, this next challenge promises to be incredibly rewarding. The chance to work with Fr. Felix, Jim, Coach Nuhu, Coach Damien and those young student athletes is a dream come true.

 

The mission of OHCF Rugby is to bring the game and all that it inspires to these young players, this includes but not limited to character, integrity, honor, respect, love of sport and the grit and determination to never give up, never quit. Games are won and lost but personal honor lives forever. My hope is that I might be a small part of their development, for that I sincerely thank Jim and Fr Felix for trusting me.
