We are now at the end of the first week that we have been able to train at the club. It has been fantastic to see the numbers on the field after the long layoff. Seniors and Devils both had excellent sessions with good attendance on Tuesday and Thursday, Vets had a great session on Wednesday and the colts U15s and some of the junior age groups have had their first training for a while on Thursday and Sunday.

As for the clubhouse, with regards to changing rooms etc we are still awaiting guidance from the government and the RFU regarding when we can start using these again. Hopefully this will be in the very near future.

As from Monday 12th April we are allowed to reopen the bar for outside table service only. We will have a covered area outside with our tables set up and there will be service provided by Belinda and her staff. The opening hours are as follows:

Monday 12th April Closed
Tuesday 13th April 19.30-21.30
Wednesday 14th April 19.30-21.30

On Saturday 17th members will get their 1st drink (pint ,wine regular spirit or soft drink) free on production of their membership card. Also we will be doing a “pint and burger/hot dog” for £5.00.

On the Sundays the meat raffle will be returning at 2pm.
We will publish a set of rules for the reopening, covering 1 way systems ,masks, sanitisers etc. before the 12th.

Hopefully we will get some good weather during April and it would be great to see as many people back at the club as possible.
