Thanks for your participation in the ATR summer Leagues, I hope you all enjoyed the games and thanks to everyone who refereed, lined pitches and the Quines who staffed the desk. The final evening saw Pelicans take the Mx Plate, Here for the Craic won the Mx Tankard, Granite Guerrillas won the Mx Quaich and Leopards won both the Mx Expert League and Mx Cup. These teams join Hoodlums who won the Mx Intermediate A League, ConocoPhillips Untouchables who won the Mx Intermediate B league, Here for the Craic who won the Mx Novice league, Hoodlads who were Men's league winners and Leopardesses who won the Women's league. Well done to all teams. The final tables and cup finals are here.

Hope to see you all next year to defend your titles and remember the one day STS on 22nd July and the Autumn leagues starting on 2nd August.

Here are the results from Week 9 The weather was pretty horrible but thanks for sticking with it and completing all the important games that allows the scheduling of the finals for next week. Do not assume the games shown will be at those times, they are just place holder and a full schedule will be posted at the weekend. The finals will be:
Plate - Gordonian Pelicans v Galactic Guerillas
Tankard - Here for the Craic v Urban Guerillas
Quaich - Shell v Granite Guerillas
Cup - Firebirds v Leopards

Don't draft in ringers for the finals

There is still a Women's league game between Hoodlasses and Guerillas Girls to play and a few Expert league games.

The Men's league concluded with Hoodlads winning this year and it looks like the Leopardesses can't be caught so are this years winners of the Women's league. Congratulations to both teams.

WEEK 8 RESULTS: here are the results from last nights games and next weeks schedule. Week 9 is knock out stages of the cup for the mixed teams and league action for the Men's and women's teams. Week 9 get complicated with referees as it depends if teams win or lose so please look at all permutations and be ready to ref.

The league for the Int A and Int B concluded last night with Hoodlums winning Int A and ConocoPhillips Untouchables winning Int B, congratulations to both teams who join 'Here for the Craic' who won the Novice league and a shout to Panthers who came top of the combined league before the split.

Please try and resist borrowing players to gain an advantage in the cup knockout stages.

Finally, good luck to all the senior players playing in the International Seniors competition in Edinburgh this weekend.

Week 7 results are here along with the updated tables. The combined Int A, B and novice league has now concluded with Panthers on top but interesting to see Gordonian Pelicans splitting the Int A teams. Week 8 will see the Int A and Int b teams play in their respective leagues so still all to play for!

Late changes to Week 7 schedule: . I have rescheduled some games so please check carefully particularly for refereeing slots. If anybody has issues with the rejig get back to me sooner rather than later and I will try to find a solution. This is mainly due to a combination of weather and pitch maintenance.

here are the week 6 fixtures. This will conclude the pool stages of the Mixed Cup. Weeks 7-10 to follow once I know the outcome of the pool games.

Week 5 results: here are the results from Wednesday's games and updated tables. Wednesday was the start of the cup games so there were a few mismatches but this shouldn't happen too often from now on. As a team has pulled out of the tournament, I need to quickly revise the schedule for next week. I will post the update asap. The Men's and women's league this year will run these as two straight leagues with each team playing each other team in their respective leagues twice.

Week 4 Results: Hi all, here are the results from Wednesdays games and updated tables. Next week sees the start of the cup games, so teams will be mixed up a bit and you may find yourself playing against teams in a higher league. Once the pool stages are over, you will be competing for trophies against teams of the same level. In order to make this competitive, please DO NOT borrow players from higher leagues and only borrow players if you are unable to field a team. Please see the tournament guidelines under Rules and Documents

Please take to the field on time. Teams later than 5 mins can have the game forfeited. Also, please take care to check if you have a refereeing duty. If no referee shows up, nominate someone from either team and start on time and send someone to the control desk to inform them.
I will send out the week 5 fixtures over the weekend once I know how many single gender teams I have.

Good luck to all teams in the cup and play fair.

Here are the Aberdeen Touch Rugby Results for Week 3 and fixtures for Week 4. If you wish to enter a single gender team this year, can you let me know by Friday 19th May.
