Waxy's Charity Evening for Hearts & Balls

When - Thursday, 21st April 2016 at 7.00pm

Where - Waxy O'Connors, Guinness Bar

What - Come and relive that magic day in Belfast. We will be showing our triumphant Pro12 Final of Season 2014/15 in its entirety.
The night is free but be warned, there will be a charity raffle in aid of Hearts and Balls. Special prizes include being able to see Scotstoun like you may never have seen it before!

Why - With only one home game, so far, to go, we might need the practice for our singing and what better way to do it than re-enacting our finest hour with fellow supporters. It will give us all a chance to catch up and prepare us for the push towards the playoffs.

There will be the customary half time snacks, courtesy of Waxys and all you need to do is let us know if you are coming. As some of you know, the Guinness Bar can be tight for numbers, so please let us know as soon as you can to guarantee your spot for a great night out.

Ali Carberry In true Warriors style we started off cautiously & upped our game as the night went on! "Fear the Beer!" Thanks very much to all the committee for organising such a nice event & to all the players for coming along & being as hopeless as us at the rugby questions! X

Christine Ferguson Great night, thanks for all the hard work you put in to make it a success. Quite relieved that the players were not great at the questions either! Thanks to all of them for their company!

Carol Thomas It was a great night. The old brain was working overtime but didn't quite get there. We'll need to swot up for next year. Great organisation & the food was great too.

Ross Currie It was a great night

Thanks to all the committee for arranging and to all the Glasgow Warriors players who attended tonight

Cheryl Watson Great night, was so glad I'm not the only one that sucked at the rugby questions. Massive thanks to the committee for arranging a fantastic night and thanks to all the players that came along.

The bomb squad & the pussycat dolls will win one day, OK one round then? Maybe, hopefully!!

Robert Williamson 2nd place for the Amazin 6. best place in 4 years.

Thanks to all the committee!

Warriors v Saints

                   V

The XVIth Warrior would like to welcome everyone back to Scotstoun for what is now our first European match of the season! We send our deepest condolences and best wishes to all of those affected by the tragedies of the last week. We have been in contact with the Racing 92 supporters to ask them to pass on our thoughts to all in Paris. Thanks to everyone who travelled to Paris this weekend, we're both relieved and happy to see everyone return safely. We hope that many of you will be able to attend the rescheduled match, date still to be confirmed.

Next week at Scotstoun, we will be having our annual Kilt Day to celebrate St Andrew's Day! Come in your best tartan and watch the Warriors play Benetton Treviso in the Pro12.

Sooner than that, we look forward to welcoming those who have booked places to the XVIth Warrior pub quiz next Tuesday. We hope you've all been studying!

Warriors v Dragons

A big XVIth Warrior welcome back to everyone after what feels like a very long time since we last visited Scotstoun! Don't feel deprived though, as today is the first of a long sixteen games in a row for the Glasgow Warriors! A special welcome also to our friends visiting from Wales and beyond to support the Dragons today!

We'd like to extend a Glasgow welcome to Taqele Naiyaravoro, Greg Peterson, Sila Puafisi and Simone Favaro who are joining us for the first time since their international duties. Congratulations to all of our players who have been on international duty for their respective countries in the Rugby World Cup, some of whom we will be welcoming back to Scotstoun shortly after the end of the pool stages. You've made us proud! Good luck to all of our players still competing and representing Scotland this weekend in the RWC quarter finals against Australia on Sunday, and a special congratulations to Ritchie Gray and Sean Lamont on reaching landmark caps for the national team.

We would like to thank everyone who has bought XVIth Warrior champions merchandise, we will be in contact with those who still need to collect their orders. A date will shortly be announced for the annual XVIth Warrior pub quiz, so keep your eyes peeled!

We look forward to seeing everyone again tonight, and at our next home game against Ospreys on November 1st. It's our Halloween game, so get your spookiest costumes on!
