The Youth Festive Raffle would not have been such a great success without volunteers across all Youth Age Groups who donated prizes, braved our great British weather to sell raffle tickets and all those who bought them.

There were 22 prizes with 22 happy winners 🙂 Amongst which was Levi, one of our U7s players who won (according to some of the younger participants) the top prize of the over-sized rugby ball, which was immediately put to use during their Minis training session – many happy faces.

Upcoming events:

Minis Panto and Christmas Party 17 Dec 2023
We then all take a well deserved break for Christmas and New Year. Back training on 8 Jan 2024

Kind regards,

It would be great to see you there.

The annual panto is taking place on the 17th of December, traditionally performed by the U10 coaches, who happily share their acting talent 😄

Last year’s rendition was performed by the current u11s and was a wonderful sight for sore eyes, performing a previously unknown version of Cinderella never before seen… and hopefully never to be seen again.

Listen to 1871’s interview with Abdou Traore in which we bid farewell to our favourite Frenchman.

For the second year running, we will be holding a Christmas Raffle in order to raise funds for Rugby Equipment. 

 Last year was a great success, with enough tickets being sold to cover the cost of the Junior Scrum Machine and Veo Camera. The generosity of people within the community to either donate, help out or purchase tickets was heart-warming. It was also an event which brought our rugby community together with each of the Youth age groups participating one way or another. 

 The winner of the main prize was one of our U13 players, who went to the England v France game at Twickenham on his birthday!
