The Goulburn Rugby Club gathered at the Clubhouse at Rugby Park on Saturday night to look over another year of wins and losses, challenges and successes, and good times.

Reflecting on another “mixed season”, the Club Presentation included mentions of the men’s first grade side making the semi finals, the second grade side being one of the youngest and most enthusiastic in years, and the women’s side attempting a run in XVs before numbers returned them to the 10s comp.

There were rep selections, embarrassing moments but, as always, more memories of running around the paddock with your mates having the best time you can have in any sport.

As always, the Club sincerely thanks all of its supporters and sponsors, especially Major Sponsor The Hibernian Hotel, for allowing us to pull on the jerseys and run around playing rugby all year. It is always appreciated, and never taken for granted.
