Falcons Rugby Club have announced that they have postponed
their title celebrations which was originally scheduled for this weekend due to
the Covid-19 pandemic situation in Malta.
The club was enjoying one of its best seasons in the MRFU
leagues, both in the men and women’s categories, before the championship was
stopped due to the Covid-19 as both selections were leading their respective
standings without a defeat.
The Falcons’ women won all their 12 games with a total of
384 points in favour and only 34 points against.
The men’s side performance was likewise impressive, managing
a mathematical win of the MRFU Cisk Lager League before the interruption of the
season due to Covid-19, making Falcons the first team to win the league in
February.
“Being the first league win for the
Falcons’ senior men’s side since the club’s inception, the celebrations were
highly anticipated,” the club said in a statement.
“However the club’s committee felt that due to the current
circumstances and for the safety of all involved, this is the best option
available.”
No timeframe has been set on when these celebrations will be
held.
