Y GOG´s (Wales)
Y GOGs (Geriatrics o Gymru – Geriatrics from Wales. Y GOGs were formed in 1993 to attend the International Golden Oldies Festival in Dublin, and since then have travelled the world enjoying the Fun, Friendship and Fraternity and the occasional pint, which Oldies Rugby is all about. Our home is at Clwb Rygbi Caernarfon (Caernarfon R.F.C.) who plays in the National League Division 4 North. Caernarfon is in North West Wales and is a small town of around 10,000 people, 80% of which speak the Welsh language, making it the the strongest area in the world for this historic language. Our players are mostly late 40’s, 50’s and a few Zimmer frames in their 60’s. We do not have any famous names on our players list but Brynmor Williams, Gareth Davies, and Jonathan Davies have all been asked to come for a trial and haven’t yet refused. Y GOGs are the only team from Wales to represent the country and attend these festivals. Team members have varied carers such as; International Art Dealers, Prime Ministers, Counterfeiters, Teddy Bear Producers, Drug Barons and Dentists. Since 1993 Y GOGs have attended the International Golden Oldies Festival in: 1995 - Christchurch – New Zealand 1997 – Vancouver – Canada 1999 - Cape Town – South Africa 2001 – Toulouse – France 2003 – Brisbane – Australia And 2004 – Benidorm – Spain – – EGOR (European Golden Oldies Rugby) Festival 2006 – Zurich – Switzerland EGOR - Winners of the ‘Battered Relic Cup’ for the Team, which reflects the Sprit of the Festival. and of course Madeira in 2008. Y GOGs have also visited Roma, Munchen, Leipzig and a Tri-Nation event at Bridgnorth (England) in 2007. In June of 2007 we held the second GŴYL Y GOGs (GOGS Festival) and had 8 teams from England, Ireland, Scotland, and Wales taking part. This event will be a precursor to the 2010 European Festival which Y GOGs have applied for and hope to be selected at the 9th Festival in Madeira.
