Gold get early jump on RCSL season 14/02/02
The Edmonton Gold of the Rugby Canada Super League have an early start on the 2002 season.
The Edmonton Gold are already preparing to improve on its 2001 record of 2-3 in the Rugby Canada Super League western conference – with a strict off season training system in place.

The Gold produced solid victories over provincial rival Calgary Mavericks by a 44-22 score, and also managed a narrow win over the Manitoba Buffalo 25-24 in the last match of the season.

With the return of some familar faces Louis Medele, Trevor MacCaulay & Brent Steinmetz the season ahead looks promising.

The Gold has a development program under way, bringing the U-21 squad up as the future players for the senior team with several players this year being on the edge of selection for the senior team. The Gold season kicks off with a game against Capilano's touring team on May 20th at the annual rugby fest in Edmonton.
