The Mitsubishi Team had this to say:

We are delighted to inform you that you have been nominated in the Mitsubishi Motors Volunteer of the Year 2020!

The Mitsubishi Motors Volunteer of the Year is a nationwide initiative that gives anyone involved in rugby the opportunity to nominate a volunteer at a grassroots rugby club, or wider rugby family, who they think deserves recognition for their commitment to the game over the last 12 months; and this year you are one of those nominees!
