In less than 5 days time we’ll be in Sydney for the Golden Oldies World Festival of Rugby. There are around 200 sides from around the world registered to play. The Misfits are taking a team and their WAGS along for a week of rugby and fun (hopefully in the sun)!
The week includes a Parade of Nations, two formal dinners, a river cruise, 3 days of rugby and a day out in the Hunter Valley. We will be staying in a nice hotel near Wynyard station in the CBD.
