To help ensure this, all coaching staff are DBS checked and each age group has an individual who is responsible for safeguarding, please ask your team manager who this is. Overall Safeguarding for the Mini & Junior Section is coordinated by Sian Landon whose contact details are [email protected] or 07791 042 061. This year is set to be a special season under the guidance of the new Director of Rugby, Rob Cook. Rob scored over 1000 points for Gloucester RFC and played in the Aviva Premiership as recently as 2016. Rob brings to the club modern coaching techniques and an improvement to the level of professionalism throughout the Mini, Junior and seniors age groups. This is Malvern Rugby Club Youth section’s first newsletter of the 2017/18 season. The Youth Committee will communicate directly with parents through regular newsletters so that you can keep abreast of all the developments, news and events – there is a lot going on!

Worcester Warriors Hub Club Worcester Warriors have recently recognised the Mini & Junior Section’s success and have invited Malvern RFC to become a ‘Hub Club’, one of only 11 clubs in four counties. Some of the benefits of such a close association with the Warriors are: - Coaching from Worcester Warrior Community Coaches. Visits to the club from Worcester Warrior 1st XV players. Opportunities for age groups to play at the Worcester Warrior’s stadium. Coaching and fun days at Malvern Rugby Club run by Worcester Warriors. We had our first “Take over day” on Sunday 17 September, with Warriors 1st XV players and Community Coaches coming to Spring Lane to coach all age groups. With the sun shining and a hog roast, it was a great day! One of the additional benefits of our Hub Club status is that if we buy tickets for Warriors home matches through our Coordinator, Colin Harding, the Club gets 10% of the ticket price back. Email Colin for a booking form or more details - [email protected] Volunteers still needed! Malvern RFC Minis and juniors are looking for some new volunteers to help with the ongoing organisation of the Youth section.

He will use the summer tour to Argentina to improve the depth of the squad, but said: “We are in a much better position than we were 12 months ago and we are in a much better position than we were six months ago. “I’ve learned more about the players, the team has developed, we are more adaptable and have greater depth. We are moving in the right direction. At the end of the day, we have back-to-back RBS 6 Nations trophies which is a fine achievement.” England’s world record equalling unbeaten run of 18 matches came to an end in Ireland, together with their hopes of becoming the first side in the professional era to win back-to-back Grand Slam titles.

  • England Connected
    October 2012 Issue 150 The Official Newspaper of The RFU and RFUW ENGLAND CONNECTED Nicola Marshall Drybrook RFC in Gloucestershire, a club that embodies community rugby, recently played host to the eagerly anticipated Canterbury kit launch. Hundreds of members of the local community and national press turned out to see England captains, Chris Robshaw, Katy McLean, Rob Vickerman and Michaela Staniford, reveal the new England home and change kits. During a training session with the captains, as well as former Drybrook and England players Natasha Hunt and Danielle Waterman, girls’ and boys’ teams from the club were put through their paces by the players. The juniors made the most of the hands-on advice on technique and training, before picking up some personal memorabilia in the autograph signing session. Drybrook won the chance to host the event by demonstrating what rugby means to their local area. The England jersey is a huge source of passion and pride for players. The Canterbury kit combines the traditional styling that has been the mark of England Rugby since 1871, together with the technical construction that the company is known for. The shirt represents the dreams not just of those who wear it but of the millions who support England. The inside of the sleeve of the seniors, women’s and sevens shirts bears the slogan ENGLAND CONNECTED – a real reminder of the rugby family. To mark the unveiling of the new kit, and its partnership with the RFU, Canterbury also launched its England Is All campaign, featuring a series of iconic images by world renowned English photographer David Bailey.
