Sheffield Hallam University Nude Rugby Calendar

Please help my club to promote our new fundraising calendar…
The new 2005 nude rugby fundraising calendar from the SHU Mens Rugby Club is now available.

Thanks

We have permission to post 4 pictures from the Calendar. Check out the main one here and it links to the other three.

This is a university club sport in England so your support would go a long way.

WOW!

HUH!? :confused:

This IS rugby, right?

Naked Sheffield Hallam U. ruggers

or here for all 4 photo albums

Check out that "team building" photo album. Yes, I've always said that nothing builds team morale faster than naked workouts stoked with beer! LOL

Oh yeah, and the team has a naked 2005 calendar, too. Now why doesn't the Stanford men's swim team follow this wonderful example??!!?

Too bad the fullsize versions of the pics weren't posted to the albums!

I have dreams like this - an entire field full of hot, naked male flesh....

I just don't understand. Why, how can rugby players be so comfortable being naked with other guys and football/baseball/basketball, so many others seem scared to death. What is it about rugby players? Is it just a rite of passage for them? A ritual?

Don't analyze it - just enjoy it...

The French calender Dieux Du Stade was homoerotic yet masculine. The French athletes seemed so confident and comfortable that you don't question their heterosexuality. But these pictures are too gay even for me. This is a gay rugby league right? Otherwise these guys are SOOO straight that crossed over back to GAY.

Amen to that.

And best thread ever in this forum

These guys market and sell their calendar and DVD and help GLBT causes with the money they get from the sales!

Rugby Guys

In case you missed it, check out the story on the Seattle Quake semi-naked rugby calendar:

Also, if you want to order it, the Web site is: www.quakerugby.org - the story presently has the wrong url.

Enjoy!

Since the New York City Gay Hockey Association isn't putting out a calendar for 2005, I guess this will just have to do. Too bad they're apparently not going to be as nude as those French rugby players, though.

WHAT FRENCH RUGBY CALENDAR???? WHAT'S THE WEBSITE! lol

Dude, where you been? Here's a little sample... um, not so little, actually! Read all about it in the French rugby studs thread.

my 2005 dieux du stade calendar arrived just in time for christmas! it is every bit as hot as last year's, though slightly less homoerotic. mind you, i'm not complaining....

for those who ordered this calendar in the past, you're used to the fortnight format (more pictures that way!) of small print at the bottom of the picture. well this year, they've gone one better, scrolling the day/date (t/1, w/2, etc) for the appropriate fortnight across a small strip at the top of the picture. when my partner saw this, he was prompted to observe, "well, they've just about done away with any pretense that this is actually a calendar!"

he's right. who cares?!

My Seattle Quake rugby calendar arrived today. Yum! Very nice black-and-white photography. Beefy guys -- not models by any means, not the really handsome guys from that French rugby team, but fine men.

I still miss the NYC gay hockey calendar, though.

Cyd, are you in it!?
