Geocache Description:

The cache is located on Brands lane footpath nr the crossroads in woodsetts. The GZ is reasonably accessible from the road to Gildingwells

The Eggchaser series is initially 4 caches + a bonus cache all themed around the glorious game of rugby union. Each of the 4 published caches contains a clue, hint or description of the bonus cache.

The game of Rugby union, is in our humble opinion, the consumate team game. Its ethos is based on the solid foundations of courage, integrity, respect, committment and responsibility. It is a game that can forge entire communities both in support and playing of the game and with respect to its infamous social activities. We hope that this cache adventure will enthuse the converted and inspire curiosity to those cache hunters who have never taken part in the game.

The clues require some basic knowledge of player positions and also pitch dimensions and nomenclature.

Maul Law 17: "A maul begins when a player carrying the ball is held by one or more opponents,
and one or more of the ball carrier’s team mates bind on the ball carrier. A maul
therefore consists, when it begins, of at least three players, all on their feet; the
ball carrier and one player from each team. All the players involved must be
caught in or bound to the maul and must be on their feet and moving towards a
goal line. Open play has ended."

The cache is a small clip top container with log book, pencil, clues and swaps.
