Pre season friendly tonight after a joint coaching session between Delft Rugby and Musketiers Nootdorp.
Delft 100% union players Nootdorp 25% union players 75% NONE rugby guys and the standard was suprising.

Good work out with Delft winning the game four tries to three on the Golden Point rule.

Both teams are now looking forward to the opening of the 3V Sport Grand Prix Nines series on saturday.

Round one of the 3V Sport GPN series had a major casualty on saturday evening when Musketiers Nootdorp failed to put a team out.

Just two days before the Musketiers had traveled to Delft with a full compliment of players for a pre season game.On saturday team manager Ian Thompson began taking phone calls from players in the afternoon saying they where unavailable for a variety of reasons.

At the venue Thompson had seven players show up and pulled the team from the first round stating safety as the reason.
With none of the experienced players available Thompson refused to allow a team of novices to take the field as he was concerned for their safety.

The NRLB management accepted this and gave the Musketiers a six tries to nil defeat in their three scheduled games.They also gave the Nootdorp team another week to raise a squad for Round Two,failure to do so will see one of the founder clubs expelled from the competition.

Thompson is hoping that saturday was one off and will be holding a meeting this week to address the reason's so many players called off.

Onto the games that did go ahead and new boys Delft Rugby threw down the challenge with a 3 tries to 3 draw against Te Werve Bustards and then followed this up with a 7-4 victory over reigning GPN champions Capelle Spartans.
Bustrads lost their clash with the Spartans 6-4.

Stand after round One.
Delft Rugby played 3 won 2 drew 1 lost 0 for 16 against 7 points 5
Capelle Spartans 3-2-0-1-14-11- 4pts
Te Werve Bustrads 3-1-1-1-13-9 - 3pts
Musketiers Nootdorp 3-0-0-3-0-18-0pts
