Re: rugby in abu dhabi
Hey Smokey,
I'm due over in AD first few days of April and have the same query. I'm told Harlequins have a bigger and more social set-up, so I'm going to give them a go.
Me, I'm an aged tight head and looking for the odd social game, and the regular crack that goes with being part of a club.
Maybe well bump into each other.
Have fun....

The Director of Rugby and Head Coach at AD Harlequins is Chris Davies, the former Youth Development Officer at London Wasps. If you'd like an intro, let me know when you get out here.

There's touch rugby through the summer I think. Something I, as a non(never) rugby playing early 40s dad of a Quins U-9 player, thought about very briefly.
