I am a Rugby Fan and love going to watch Harlequins at the Stoop.
When I received my Virtual Reward I immediatly thought of Twickenham Stadium home of the RFU.
Outside the stadium on the south east corner not far from the ticket office is a 27ft tall bronze sculpture, depicting a rugby line-out.
It was unveiled on 28/5/2010 the Sculptor is Gerald Laing.
The five core values are listed twice around the feet of the players.
These are teamwork, respect enjoyment discipline sportsmanship.
There are two metal plaques one at each end of the oval.
Now to your tasks to log this virtual
Please send me the answers to two questions.
1. How many spotlight housings are there inside the oval to illuminate the lineout?
2. Adding up the numbers on the players shirts what is the total ?
Please send your answers to me via the message link on the cache page or through e-mail or on the app.
In your log please post a photo of yourself proudly wearing your favourite club or national colours including the statue in the background. Here is an example.
If you do not wish to show your face, write your Geocaching name and the team you like or nation that you support on a piece of paper, hold it in front of the statue, here is an example.
Another way is to write your cache name and nationality on the photo.
Please do not include spoilers in your picture.
You do not have to include your face. The ability to request a picture as a logging requirement is allowed as per the geocaching guidelines here.
Once you have fulfilled these requirements please feel free to log a find. If there is an issue with it I will contact you. If it is evident that you have not fulfilled the logging requirement in any way your log will be deleted without notice.
I hope you have enjoyed visiting this virtual and if you have watched a match on the day enjoyed the game whether your team won lost or drew.
Congratulations to Franketc who was FTF just 22 minutes after publication.
There was then a six day wait until Bond2468 was STF well done.
