rugby club mrcs com plaints over poor field conditions mrc president chris van straten and past president dave harris met for an hour with markham village recreation mrc has a tough time the prospect of a new field to play on might help the markham rugby club win a few more games because its having a lot of bad luck lately injuries were the big problem as the team dropped both a 147 summerleague decision to the toronto scottish and a 1513 contest to brampton in firstround mccor- mick cup action not only was mike foster on the limp see story above but veterans scott bow ers and andy wendorf also had to watch the proceedings from the sidelines in the scottish loss newcomer john paul had the lone fourpoint try and bill quinn booted a threepoint penalty kick in the brampton game markham played a lot of catchup rugby gaining a 99 draw by halftime john watt scored the try and bill quinn booted a penalty kick and a two- point conversion luck went against mrc in the second half as it had to play two men short be cause the referee would not allow substitu tions for injuries but the team still managed to score once more with paul grabbing an inside pass from watt and earning a fourpointer what ended up making the difference was a controversial brampton conversion kick mrc players argued the kick went three feet wide but the referee disagreed and awarded brampton two points

examine other areas for mrc to practise on the meeting was fairly positive said van straten a former mdhs teacher we understand their gilmor and woods problems they have lots and lots of groups to schedule come this fall mrc will be able to play on the newly reopened mdhs south field that pitch has been closed for a year to allow the town and nature to affect repairs on the rippedup surface as well exhibition games involving mrc the toronto lions the toronto rug by union tru representative team and a visiting club from tabard england will all be played at centennial park and in alleviating another longtime mrc complaint the town will be marking off the field there before each of those con tests van straten said the mdhs front field is in such brutal shape that ideally it should markham
