Eric & Jared's House (ask us for details)
Details: 

It's been at least a year since we've had a housewarming here, so having Renegade Jared move in is as good an excuse as any.

Rock up any time during the night for GOOD TIMES! But beware the foosball hustlers... ok... me.

There's no theme or anything, because I don't want to distract myself from the beer drinking. But feel free to dress stupid (say, as a volleyballer in the offseason) if you're that way inclined...

Feel free to invite any volleyballers you know, we're not too picky.

The weekend tournament started at 8AM against Phantoms from Geelong (with a couple of Renegades in disguise). They won 2-1 and we hoped that would be the hardest match up of the weekend. As it turned out we were right, and after 5 more games, a few beers, a lot of turkish bread and some classic sledging by Gillby we met them again in the final.

Players wanted for Mornington tournament glory

We have 12 guys confirmed to be going to Mornington which is an awkward number and leaves us 2 options. Either we get the guys together in a Thunderdome style deathmatch until we have a nice number of players for one team, or we find a few more players so we can safely bring two teams and all enjoy plentiful court time.
