Welcome to the Beers’ first email newsletter. I’m going to try and put one of these things out once a month or so to keep everyone in the loop about Beers news and upcoming events. You can also view the newsletters anytime online at http://www.thebeers.com.au/category/newsletters/

This month in Beers News…

1. Are you playing next season?
2. Auchenflower grand final next Thursday
3. Beers going international

NEXT SEASON >>

I need to know who is playing next season at the Auchendome. For those of you that have been out of the loop, we just had one of our most fun seasons ever, with two teams in the same A4 comp on Thursday nights. Both teams made the finals and during the season contested the first ever MEGABOWL.

As long as we have enough players, we’ll have two teams in the same comp again, and will most likely have a draft of some kind to split them up evenly.

We’re also getting new uniforms, so I need to know 2 things from everyone.

1. Do you want to play next season on Thurday nights?
2. What name/number do you want on your new uniform? If you are not playing next season, let me know if you still want a set of uniforms - we’re all getting 2 sets each - home & away colours. They’ll be very similar to the current maroon & black set and shouldn’t cost more than about $50 all up because we get them at cost. If you want to change your current number, check out this page to see what’s available >> http://www.thebeers.com.au/roster/

Brown, Sidey, Seth, Harry, Rhino - come and play again - we miss you guys! It doesn’t matter if you can’t play every week.

BEERS GRAND FINAL NEXT THURSDAY >>

The 7 Shades of Amber team made it to the GF which is on next Thursday at 6:30pm on Auchenflower court two. We’re playing the same team we beat in the GF last season - the Cyclones - but they are a little tougher this season and beat us in the first semi last week. It should be a good game.

Come watch and join us for victory/consolation Beers at the Regatta afterward.

BEERS GOING INTERNATIONAL >>

July 26, 2008 is the day that the Beers will play their first international match, going up against Phuket’s Prince of Songkla University in Thailand. Smokey, Sidey, Pig, Snoop, Plow, UK recruit, Tim, and anyone else we can recruit on Patong Beach will be donning the green & gold strip and chasing Manuschai Phadung and his speedy Thai mates all over the court in what will no doubt be some hot, sticky conditions. Look out for pictures and stories on the website.

Remember - please get back to me about next season and your new uniform.
