” If a player is willing to accept praise from his coach, he should be able to accept criticism and feedback without taking the huff”
– Penicuik RFC 1xv coach late 1990’s

1xv
No game for the 1xv this weekend, however its Friday nights under the lights next Friday (23rd) as they welcome Livingston, and hopefully the corner flood light has been replaced by then.
2XV
This weekend our 2xv make the trip to Linlithgow. Congratulations go to Linlithgow who this season won the East National league 1 when they beat Langholm 35-5 on the 27th January.
Coach Manny is jubilant in being able to recall 2xv captain Ally McCormick, following his long spell with injury. Despite there not being a 1xv fixture, Manny has continued to select from the 2xv pool which is a great testament to the squad.
