Scrum! - this weekend at Esher for gay and bi-sexual rugby players

The second 'Bingham Cup' rugby competition is being hosted this weekend by London club, The Kings Cross Steelers Rugby Football Club. I've been a supporting member of the Steelers for some years now and have been watching the planning for this year's event, from a distance, for nearly a year now.

The 'Bingham Cup' was set up in memory of Mark Bingham, and this tribute to him on the San Fransisco FOG website (where he was a member) is worth reading, too. Mark was a passenger aboard United Airlines Flight 93, one of the four aeroplanes hijacked on 11th September 2001.

Whilst I wish ALL the participating teams good luck, I just have to end by saying: GO STEELERS!
