Support Your Local Rugby

Some of you may have heard about the movie Forever Strong.  Well not only is it filmed in our very own backyard, but it is based on true events of the Highland Rugby team.  Chris' uncle, Larry Gelwix, is the head coach of the team and has been for 30 something years.  His record is something like 350 wins and 9 losses.  The team is not only the best in the nation but one of the  best in the world.  This movie is based on Larry's years as a coach and many of the events in the movie actually happened.  It's an inspiring story and a great movie.  Support the independent, small budget movie and go and see it!
