MORRIS MASTERS RUGBY
Morris Masters in Ireland
Morris Masters is a collection of old boys who still wear the jersey of Morris Rugby but may be either a little on in years or unable to train as hard as they once did when they were a little younger ... OR BOTH.
Our motto is, "The older we get, the better we were."

Morris Masters . . . . but we don’t want the Irish!!
It was Long Island’s turn to host the Olde Boy Palooza. But L.I. Ralph was not there!! My Mom always used to say that apple pie without cheese is like a hug without a squeeze. This was a very similar situation, but I am too lazy to think of a word that rhymes with Ralph,…

By Ralph Scoville Between our game last week on Randall’s Island and this week’s game at Center Island Field in Oyster Bay, I could not help but notice how the 2 NY cities deal with the restoration of artificial turf fields. At Randall’s Island, the City Forefathers and Fivemothers had already decided that they needed…

Prior to the opening of our Spring season, the NYC Parks Commission requested a sit-down with the 6 families of Metro NYC Old Boys Pugby (we cannot call it rugby, because USA Rugby would expect a vigorish, as if our lifetime of blood and sweat equity is not enough).
