Charles Sturt University (CSU) will host a rugby union reunion this Friday 2 to Sunday 4 May to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the victory for the Mitchell 1st XV in the 1978 NSW Central West Rugby Competition. In 1979 the reserve team won the Central West competition - the next time CSU won the competition was in 2006. All players, coaches and managers associated with the Mitchell Rugby teams of 1978 and 1979 have been invited. Sixty will attend the Reunion Dinner, including the Vice-Chancellor and President of CSU, Professor Ian Goulter, and CSU Rugby Club representatives and the winners of the 2007 and 2008 Bathurst Rugby Alumni Scholarships and 2008 Encouragement Award. Many players in the 1978 and 1979 teams also played for NSW and for carious Sydney clubs, including Ross Reynolds who went on to play for Australia in seven tests. Since July 2006, the Rugby alumni have contributed an annual scholarship worth $2 500 each year for three years for a worthy CSU student.
