Weekend Highlights: 30 June 2019
This is the Sunday addendum edition of the highlights, for 30 June.
In a bid to make this list as useful as possible, we've avoided links to Facebook except where noted. (Links to Teams are to non-Facebook resources - Instagram, or actual team pages - we'd strongly recommend that Teams get themselves an actual webpage [we can help host one if you need help]).
This is a scrimmage-heavy update, but we approve of open scrims, so we're good with that.
Locations are roughly organised East-West (with things before the weekend out sequence at the start).
