Christmas Dinner - what a cracker
Well done Christine & Brian Steenkiste in organising a brilliant night, all the hours you put in behind the scenes are really appreciated. Of course we have to make a special mention for all the stars of the Show, "Terry Cooper" Yeheudi Carruthers and his assistant George, Nick & Matt the father and son Cypriot Dancers, Gazza the Fire eater,Max(ine) Jack(eline) & Gavin(ella) the Can Can  Dancers and of course the singing superstar Susan(Graham) Boyle. All of this ably supported by Barrie Kate AJ Keith & Martin as the famous "Judges" panel.
What a night - arguably the best so far, well done everybody.
Farewell
Also we have to farewell to two Tigers leaving the island - Matt Landers off to the UK and Dan Hignett of to Thailand. Good luck guys, hope we see you sometime in the future - you are always welcome. 
Once a Tiger always a Tiger.
Thank you

Fellow Rugby Supporters
Due to circumstances beyond their control, the match against Episkopi this Saturday 12th December has been postponed.
Unfortunately we were not able to get other matches rearranged either, so there is no match for Paphos Tigers this weekend.
The next scheduled match will now be on the 9th January 2010, Tigers at home against Akrotiri.
The other three postponed fixtures from the first half of the season against Dhekelia, 2PWRR and Episkopi will be rearranged in the New Year.

Mini Tigers Trip to Cairo

Rugby is a growing sport in Cyprus. Paphos Tigers are developing a programme to encourage youngsters through the ranks of both the Mini's and Colt's rugby with a long term view to strengthen the senior and international squad of future years.

The Paphos Tigers Mini's are raising money so they can enter and compete in the Junior Rugby Tournament in Cairo, Egypt, March 2010. This opportunity has not been open to them before and would be great chance to put Cyprus Junior Rugby on the map.

We are hoping to enter an under 12's team and also give our players that do not fit into that age group, the chance to play with other teams. Our juniors will be playing in the tournament on the first day with the option to learn rugby techniques on the second. Hopefully they will also get the chance to visit the great pyramids.

Various fund raising is planned including a sponsored walk, carol singing, a cook book, a Valentine dinner, etc. However, we are also looking for sponsorship for the trip, so if you are a company or individual that would like to sponsor our youngsters and give them this chance, please contact us.

The Tigers are always open to newcomers and welcome new players, whether experienced or novice of any nationality.

For further information please contact Sally Blomfield on 99326452 or log onto the Paphos Tigers website. You can find information on the Cairo trip and our progress by logging onto www.paphostigersrfc.com and clicking the link attached to the mini's section.


Thanks and take care

Fun Day Thank You

Thank you thank you thank you, one and all.
What a great day out the Fun Day was.The sun shone all day, the parachutists fell on target, over 120 guys played rugby, from minis to veterans, The Tigers won the M1 Lux Cup, over 60 guys were playing fantastic football, hosted by the Paphos Cheetahs, over 80 stalls did a roaring trade and eight charities benefited as well. Thousands turned up and ate and drank heartily, and cheered on their teams and over 60 volunteers helped by running all those odd jobs that are so necessary for this to be a great day out and to make this whole day run like a well oiled machine.
RockFM hosted the day brilliantly, Neil Jenkins and Andy Moore gave kicking lessons and kicked off the big match and presented the M1 Lux Trophy ,and all of our sponsors were there, Mark & Tracey from Horizon group, Jorge and Andrew from Mercato del Golfo, and most important of all, John Thornton the Managing Director of M1 Lux who are the the main club sponsors, and are the Fun Day Sponsors , without whom this day could not be run.
Thank you John , we really do appreciate your help and support, and thank you all for attending, helping , playing and supporting.
See you all next year

A small favour please

Hi Tiger Fan
As you know the Paphos Tigers Fun Day is nearly upon us and we need to advertise so we thought a good way of getting these posters out is to send each of you a copy of the posters and then you can print out a few to give out to your local pub or club, newspaper shop or supermarket petrol station etc, any busy outlet anywhere.
Don't forget your own car windows or works vans can be used as well.
If everybody displays at least two then there will be several hundred adverts around Paphos and district.
They are in English and Greek as we want to encourage and promote the game locally, so please do us yourself and the club a favour and promote this great family day out NOW.
Thank you
Nigel Jarvis

Two Paphos Tiger Colts get Awards

An U17 Summer Training Camp held at the Paphiakos Stadium last weekend, was arranged by The Cyprus Rugby Federation, sponsored by The Early Learning Centre who invited both Israeli and Cypriot Colts coaches and referees to this event.
This was hosted by Ex French International Pierrre Villepreux and integrated the coaching of colts referees and coaches along with health and nutritional advice and was a very successful three day course.
The two awards won by the Paphos Tiger colts ,given by the Israeli contingent were for Best Player, Jack Bilton, and Most Improved Player, Charles Gallagher. Well done lads.
On the final day a free flowing match between Cyprus and Israel ended in Cyprus winning by 4 tries to three.
It was great to see so many youngsters enjoying the game and can only auger well for the future of rugby in Cyprus.
Well done the CRF in organising this event.

Great News - Cyprus improve Ranking

It was confirmed yesterday that after Cyprus had played in Greece and Croatia recently in the European Sevens Competition, that they magnificently improved their ranking.
They started the competitions in 21st place but have now improved by nine places and are now considered 12th best in Europe.
For a small country that has only been involved in Internationals for 3 years to have achieved this high ranking position in such a short time is absolutely brilliant , and full praise must go the full Cypriot Sevens team in achieving so much in so little time.
Well done all of you guys, and we are especially proud of our own Paphos Tigers in this squad of George Agathocleous, Kyle Oelofse, Chris Thoma and Marcus Holden.

Tiger Cubs in Action

The Paphos Tiger Minis took part in an U12 Tournament in Limassol on Sunday 14th June 2009, along with teams from Limassol Crusaders, Pascal English Schoool and the American Academy (Limassol). It is the first tournament they have taken part in for 4 years and they didn't let us down.

Our players were :Sam Blomfield 9 years, Callum Cowley 10 years, Ewan Cowley 7 years, Alexi Droushiotis 7 years, Zak Droushiotis 9 years, Henry England 9 years, Flynn Kennedy 10 years, Chelsey Mac 11 years , Alex Panayai 11 years, Bradley Sherwood 11 years.

They played four matches, 2-5, 6-1, 2-4, 4-5. Unfortunately the scores do not give a true picture of how they played. In the first match against the American Academy they were a bit rusty and unorganised, but considering the season finished at the end of March, we can allow them this!

The second match was against Pascal ( a team, incidently, that consisted solely of 14 and 15 year olds). They lifted their game and despite the huge age difference, beat them soundly 6-1. A great win considering our team had two 7 year olds, three 9 year olds, two 10 year olds and three 11 year olds.

It was a joy to watch them pull toether as they got into the tounament showing great defensive skills and outstanding runs.

The Tiger Mini's got through to the semi-finals only to be pipped at the post by the American Academy 4-5.

A big thanks to all our players, parents and supporters who made the trip. Well done chaps!

If anyone, boys and girls, are interested in joining the team or just coming down to see what rugby is all about please contact Sally on 99326452. All are welcome.

Sad News

It is with deep regret we have to report the passing of Mrs Jacky Newman.
With her love of rugby and "Can Do" attitude she was very much a stalwart of the club, and was always first to volunteer her services for fund raising and helping out.
She will be deeply missed.
Our thoughts and sympathy go out to her husband Roy and family at this very sad time.

European Sevens Results

The boys done good!!!!!
In group A they only lost one match out of four and that was against the tournament's favourites Spain, and beat Bosnia, Luxembourg and Greece, so they came second in their group and went on to play the mighty France in the semi finals of the Cup.
Unfortunately France were to strong and so, after a play off position aginst Spain again they came out overall fourth in the competition out of 10.
It shows how well they played because in the International rankings they have now improved 5 places and have shot up from 21st to 16th out of 30 countries.
Well done Cyprus, well done Tigers and good luck in your next competition next weekend in Split in Croatia.
They will be up against Italy, France, Germany, Belgium, Croatia Bosnia Serbia Switzerland and Hungary, so another stiff competition for our proud Cypriot Team.
As you know the team has to pay its own ways and if you feel you would like to help them with their travelling expenses then please either contact me or call in the Keg & Barrel or Rugby Arms and leave a donation.
Thanks for your continuing help and support of the sport.

This is the start for Cyprus of a long hard and arduous route which could result in the chance to qualify for the World Cup Sevens.
Four Paphos Tigers, Chris Thoma, Kyle Oelofse, Marcus Holden & George Agathocleous have all beeen called into the Cypriot Sevens squad which travels to Athens this weekend to play in the first round pre qualifier.
They will be playing Spain Greece Bosnia and Luxembourg in Pool A and the other teams in Pool B are France Romania Monaco Serbia and Bulgaria.
There is a Bowl, Plate and Cup to play for over this 2 day event, (sponsored by the Hellenic Rugby Federation and the Greek Government) but even more importantly will be the collection of points towards qualification matches further along the road.
Next weekend they will be playing in Split in Croatia and will come up against some even stronger teams such as Italy, France Germany Belgium Croatia Bosnia Serbia Switzerland and Hungary, but if enough match wins can be claimed then they can travel to Germany for play offs for the World Cup Sevens.
Now wouldn't that be something.
Good luck Tigers, Good luck Cyprus and come back with some silverware and those valuable points.
