Just out of curiosity...

Post by GaussianEliminator »

....I spent a short amount of time at CTC recently and regularly spotted(what I'm assuming was) a rugby team bimbling around in 3 ranks. I've heard of sports teams doing teamwork training and whatnot down at CTC - anybody know what they were up to??

Not sure who it was but I do know the England Rugby Union team did some training with the Marines lately

I think England's "boot camp" finished quite a while ago.

It would have been the Exeter rugby team, I think they're called 'the Chiefs' or something like that.
