[QUOTE="LittleGuy, post: 471369, member: 44360"] In Canada this debate has raged since the dawn of time, since the Lower Mainland and Islands of British Columbia have a mild enough winter(although very wet) to play rugby during the winter. While the rest of the country does not, I live in Niagara which has mild winters by most Canadian standards and playing rugby outdoors is a total no go in January and February along with large parts of December and March. The same goes for large parts of the northern United States. Bummer about our rugby season is they stick some comps like the CRC at a time of year July and August when it reaches 40C outside so you get to play in a sunny Sauna like atmosphere. A spring or fall season would be best. [/QUOTE]
