AMNRL Partners with Philadelphia Whitemarsh Rugby Union Club For The Becky Marseglia Memorial Tournament in Avalon, NJ on Saturday, April 16

The American National Rugby League and the rugby union community is getting together under the auspices of the famous Philadelphia Whitemarsh RFC to morally and financially support Mark (Murph) Marseglia after the recent loss of his daughter, Becky. Mark coached his daughter as a member of the Hibernian Banshees HS Girls' Rugby Team and had been a player for both the Hibernian and Philly Whitemarsh Club for many years and also a founding player with the New Jersey Sharks Rugby League Club. He needs our help.

On April 16th all who wish to support this good cause will gather in Avalon, N.J., for a revival of old rivalries and more importantly, friendships. There will be a four team old boy tourney, an AMNRL Rugby League All Star Match, and the play will culminate with a Super League Match featuring Philly Whitemarsh vs. Powerful New York Athletic Club (NYAC) last year's Eastern Division Playoff Contender.

Events will start @ approx. 9:00 am and end following the Super League Match which begins @ approx. 2:00 pm with the Beef and Beer to follow @ approx. 4 pm.

Anyone who attended last year's Super League Match & after match function in Avalon will never forget it as among the most memorable days and in our local rugby community's history.

The local AOH (Ancient Order of Hibernians) will participate, and we anticipate a colorful start to the ceremonies.

Accommodations at the Windrift are approx. $89 double occupancy per night (Windrift Hotel, 79th Street, Avalon, Reservations 1-800-45DRIFT or 609 368 5175)

The buffet/beef and beer fundraiser is $20 per person or $35 per couple.

Please consider making reservations right away, we anticipate a large turnout - there will be unprecedented local publicity via the support of the local AOH.

Thank you in advance for your support of this worthy cause
