ESRC The Elephants

E.S.R.C. "THE Elephants" is a student rugby club from Eindhoven The Elephants bestaan vooral uit studenten van de TU/e en de Fontys Hogeschool.

Een heel diverse groep van dikke/dunne/lange/kleine/snelle/trage Rugbyers waarvan de meesten tijdens hun studententijd zijn begonnen met Rugby. We zijn een toegankelijke club, waar vrijwel iedereen zijn draai kan vinden. Door de aard van het Rugby heerst er bovendien een hecht teamgevoel, dat je bij weinig andere sporten of verenigingen terugziet. Lidmaatschap van The Elephants is overigens goed t

e combineren met het lidmaatschap van bijvoorbeeld een studievereniging of van één van de studentenverenigingen, getuige al onze (oud)leden van het ESC, SSRE en Demos. The Elephants zijn dan ook studenten die bij alle opleidingen en studie/studentenverenigingen wel te vinden zijn.

For many of our boys, last Sunday’s match was their last run in the elephants jersey. Every single one will be greatly missed.

Few elephants in history will go down as notoriously as Tom, who (debatably) made his elephants debut in the late 90s, and remains one of the only men in the organization’s history to play 100 matches.

What a way to bow out.

Last October, the weekend of our Dies, our annual Kick-Off Weekend took place, where usually we go somewhere near Eindhoven, this year we went a bit further. Beyond Maastricht Young Dogs and Elephants settled in army tents and a cow barn for the weekend.

On Friday evening, we started the weekend traditionally with a cantus. New members were paired with Elephants to face the consequences of one of their actions, together.

Saturday the theme "back to the future" was lived up to by teaching the young dogs and puppies (and some of the older members too) the brief history of THE Elephants. From texts out of our lustrum book, the Kick-Offcie came up with assignments to do. After this busy day program, it was time for some more drinking, food and a small auction, just like the kampioenswedstrijd. Hopefully our Young Dogs and Puppies will still be with us when that time comes.

On Sunday, after a thorough cleanup of the farm, it was finally back to travel back to Eindhoven (and to the Future) and for the Young Dogs and Puppies to play their first official rugby match! The puppies killed it, and the Young Dogs had some heavier weather against

The Dies was celebrated with a nice frituurkar and lots of beers, the weekend even ended with the constitution of our new Commissaris Olifant the 'VoBaas!

Thanks to "de Koeberg" for letting us stay on the farm! For a more comfortable stay, you can check dekoeberg.com
