The club's continuing ability to provide a high quality rugby experience for its community depends entirely on the dedicated contributions of our volunteers. In recognition and appreciation of the time, effort and commitment devoted to the cause, the club will be hosting a 'VOLUNTEER THANK YOU' day on Saturday 16th July.

So if you've coached, managed, marshalled, whistled, assisted, organised, swept, cleaned, fixed, cooked, poured, tended or stepped forward in any way to support the club in the last year please join us for complimentary food and a drink on the house.

All volunteers are invited and we hope you can make it, as it's a rare opportunity for us to bring everyone together for an informal social, and to acknowledge what we achieve together

If you're feeling energetic, Touch Rugby will kick off as usual at 10am. The Australia v England final Test Match will be screened and food will be served from 12.30pm. To help us organise the catering please confrm your attendence with an RSVP message to Volunteer Co-ordinator Hilary Berry ‭07583 240653‬ hilary.berry@hotmail.co.uk. Thank you.
