Welcome to the Home Page of Long Buckby RFC Minis and Juniors. We run rugby training sessions or games for children from U6 all the way through to U17 and everybody is welcome to participate. At Long Buckby RFC your child will quickly make friends and will be introduced to or coached in the skills of rugby in a fun and informal setting that caters for all skill levels. We have over 300 registered children who participate and a vibrant club atmosphere for players and parents. If you would like to join the club then the first step is to come along. We train or play on Sundays from 10.30 to 12 noon so feel free to come along and introduce yourselves and your child. We will get them involved and tell you all you need to know. Alternatively you can contact the coaches of the age group your child will be playing for directly by looking for their details in the Mini and junior section coaches and contacts page. We look forward to welcoming you at the Club Saints tournament 22 November 2008All - I have good news and bad!
The good news is we can take all our available
players - the bad news is we will need to meet at 0830 at theSaints on the back
pitches as normal.
All players and an accompanying parent must have a
ticket for the game against Bath. If you have not been able to a cash back
ticket from the Club please contact the Saints ticket office
direct.
There are 5 groups and we have pool games against
Huntingdon, Kettering and Banbury. Group winners and the best 3 runners up
qualify for the 1/4 finals and then it is knock out rugby. The final is
scheduled for 1145 with the Bath game kicking off at 1300. Group games should be
finished by 1030.
Several players have said they have school fixtures
but if there are any late changes to your plans you can now turn up and I will
endeavour to get everyone some game time subject to trying to get through to the
latter stages of the competition. If players do not get that much game time I
hope people will understand but last year we picked up an couple of injuries and
had to use our full squad and still managed to win so we will have to see how
things pan out!
Please can I ask everyone to come with a good
supply of food and drink plus plenty of warm clothing. CAN I ALSO ASK EVERYONE
TO BE AT THE SAINTS IN GOOD TIME - I WANT TO BE ABLE TO SELECT THE STARTING LINE
UP FOR THE IMPORTANT FIRST GAME AT 0845. Late arrivals are likely to miss out -
you have been warned! In particular given that we have several regular
starters away this weekend we will want to select from as strong a line up as
possible so please do make a special effort to be on time.
Well done on Sunday for what sounded like good wins
against Bugbrooke! See you on the weekend - either Saturday or Sunday with
buckets or both!!!
Cheers
Colin
