We Need You!!!
The ongoing running of the club needs the
support of you, the parents, whether this is helping in the kitchen on Sunday mornings, helping to organise social
events, helping with fund-raising or recruitments ideas or in any other way. Please call Colin on 07798 743041 if you would
like to become involved. We would be delighted to accept any help available, regular or one-off.
So, why
play junior rugby with us?
Successful: Both last season, and this, players from our U17
squad where selected for trials for the Middlesex County (U17), this season two
of our under 14s went on trials with the Middlesex Rugby School, many if not all of all of the players in our squads
excel in sports (especially in Rugby), as well gaining self-confidence. Fun: Yes, we keep it fun and safe (our coaches are qualified and CRB checked). Unique: Video
Analysis/coaching from training and matches for the improvement of individual
technique and team work as well as focusing on player health and safety.
Free
food after matches: for those taking part.
Great value: sometimes forgotten with expensive subs at many other
sports clubs, membership is reasonable and further details will
be posted here with costs for 2010-11 shortly. All of these things help lead to a vibrant junior section which is growing, with new
people turning up most weeks for a "free try out", it is a great place for children ad parents to meet and make
friends so why not be part of it! For more information

Junior Section Club Development Programme; the RFU
Seal of Approval
The Rugby Football Union has introduced the Seal of Approval as a method of examining, maintaining
and improving the provision of rugby in the youth section of a rugby club. It aims to recognise the effort and achievement
of those clubs that reach and maintain the required standard to meet the various levels of the Seal of Approval.
The
Seal of Approval will be used to satisfy the Active Sports Club Registration Criteria for those clubs involved in delivery
of the Active Sports Rugby Union Programme. The criteria for the Sport England (Safe, Effective & Child Friendly Club
mark) is integrated within the Seal of Approval. A successful application for the RFU Seal of Approval will achieve the Sport
England Safe, Effective & Child Friendly Club.
The Award will be an indication of the quality of provision a club
offers, and its commitment to the continued development of young rugby players. A club will receive certification to confirm
accreditation, both from the Rugby Football Union and Sport England
While we have gained the Seal of Approval/Clubmark award, the club will continue to put maximum efforts into developing and
strengthening it's organisation and standards to bring further benefit for current and future members (players, volunteers
and supporters)
