Dragons Swansea, Men – 18/19 July

Update 7th July:  Sorry to say that many of the Thistles regulars who would have attended are committed to training schedules for the World Cup which is in August.  After the re-marketing failed to produce a full squad I contacted Dragons and agreed to pass on the names of those interested in combining with Dragons to still enjoy the weekend but not in a blue shirt. If anyone else is still interested in playing as part of a Dragons team then please email me.

———–

This is a regular Thistles event; great social and very enjoyable on the two quality astros at Swansea University Sports Park.  This is an “Open” event though a little fairness will be needed if heavily oversubscribed.
