Hi All
We are coming to a busy end to the season lots of events presentations and the final matches of the season are to be played.

On the playing front, this weekend the Green Machine are playing Peterborough II’s in the Hunts and Peterborough cup final at Peterborough RUFC on Saturday kick off 4pm let’s get lots of support there for them. Also on the Saturday the Devils are playing in a 10’s tournament at St Neots RUFC. On Sunday, the U14’s host their first festival at Deepings welcoming 4 teams to Linchfield road and the Dragons are away at Stamford Festival. Good luck to all playing this weekend and let’s hope we all finish the season on a high note.

Off the field this weekend we are supplying the bar for the first Deepings Literary Festival this will be a prestigious event for the area and the club is proud to be providing the bar. Any help would be very much appreciated from setting up on Friday afternoon from 3pm to working the bar on Saturday evening (Friday we should have covered. ) and packing away on Sunday morning, please let Lee Duncan or myself know if you can help at any stage over the weekend.

After that we come to our presentation ceremonies, The U14’s have their dinner and presentation on Friday May 5th, The dragons on Saturday May 6th And the senior awards dinner is on Friday 12th May please get your tickets from the bar asap.

Finally and probably most importantly we have the club Annual General Meeting on Tuesday May 16th this is one of the key events in the year as this dictates how the club will move forward in the coming year, please let’s all make a big effort to attend this meeting as it gives you your chance to air your views and play a part in the running of the club. Below is a list of positions that need filling to ensure a smooth and successful running of the club. Some positions were unfilled last year which hopefully will not be the case this year.
