Looking for accomodations and work for current players
Jordan Hopkins from Wales and currently working at College Settlement until the end of August is close to deciding to stay on here for the fall. We need a place for him to stay and possibly some manual work to put some change in his pocket. If anyone has a place for him to crash for the fall season, it would be great. We will also need to look after him as far as getting him to training and games. Email Allan with suggestions
Mike Gibson (our young South African #9) is also looking for work for when he is not in school. He is on Facebook so if you think you could help him, send him a message.
