It was indeed a crazy sight in the car park at CRFC as the section readied itself for an away trip. Full matchday uniform of CRFC tracksuits were the order of the day augmented by every imaginable item of headgear, some a little crazier that others.
The event was organized by the sections brains trust of Youth Coordinator Mark Kidd and former YDOs Michael Dickson and Jimmy McTeggart.
