Golden Oldies Rugby
For those of you visiting Rubislaw today from afar, or if you have just moved into the area……you may not be aware of being willing……if not able…..to continue with Rugby when you are over 35 + by Playing Golden Oldies Rugby, which, while still abiding by IRB Laws, has a few variations! For our local Supporters, you can get involved as well !

Games have shortened Playing Times, there is Unlimited Substitution, Over Aggressive Play is NOT condoned, Age is shown by the Colour of Shorts one wears ( and over 60’s cannot be Tackled !! ) and you play in a Festival….not a Tournament, in the Spirit of – Fun, Friendship and Fraternity ! Aberdeen Strollers were Scotland’s only Team at World and European Festivals from 1985, till the World Golden Oldies Rugby Festival came to Edinburgh in 2008, when about twenty new, or reformed Scottish Teams participated. To maintain this Legacy, the first three Scottish Golden Oldies Rugby Festivals took place at Perthshire RFC in the Spring of 2009, and the 4th Scottish Festival, took place in St Andrews, at the Home of Madras RFC, on 19th May, 2012, and the 5th Festival was hosted by Highland RFC. Festivals of various sizes take place throughout Scotland and if you fancy hosting one, details are available on our Website.

Individuals, or Groups of Players are most welcome….so if you are 35 years of age……or over…..and wish to find out more about Playing with - Aberdeen Strollers…..or any other Golden Oldies Rugby Team – contact myself at - mcgoldiego@hotmail.com – 07866 910 865 For information on Scottish, European or World Festivals, log on to - www.pitchero.com/clubs/scottishgoldenoldiesrugby ; www.europeangoldenoldiesrugby.com and www.goldenoldiessports.
