We are the Skåne Oldboys Rugby
We have steadily risen in stature over the years coming a close second in the Georg Holek Cup (GHC) in Perugia and the GHC in Konstanz. However our two greatest achievements to date are lifting the Jeff Butterfield trophy at the recent Farnham Old Boys Rugby Festival 2015 and managing to get everyone to meet up at the airport in Copenhagen at the same time!
Skåne OBR is of course all about the camaraderie, the experience of travelling to new and exciting countries, the opportunity to play against and socialise with new teams, the beer and the wine, and at the end of a hard day, a win every now again.
So now we come to 2016 and what this year will bring. 2015 has been a year of great highs cavernous lows. The 2015 RWC was the most successful ever but let us not forget the tragic events that took place in Paris in January and November of 2015.
In 2016 Skåne OBR will have the honour of hosting the GHC in Trelleborg on the southern tip of Sweden. The tournament will be held over three days from the 25th to 27th August 2016 and we hope to have a full quota of twelve teams by this time.
