Incorporated under the Industrial & Provident Societies Act 1965 No 28989R 3 MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT Well what a first year to my term of office. Two World Cups and a County Championship Final at Twickenham. It has been an honour and a privilege to have served as the Cheshire President for the last 12 months and I look forward to having the pleasure of continuing for a second season. Having had quite a hectic first term of office I did manage to watch all the age grade County teams at least once and had the pleasure of visiting many of our member clubs. All of which made me so very welcome. This I wish to continue to do during the coming season, hoping to visit as many as possible ‘weather permitting. It was unfortunate that we lost so many games to the bad weather last season, meaning I missed the opportunity of visiting 4 clubs which I will remedy this season. The professional staff informed the County that we now have 12 more teams than last season. So congratulations to those clubs that have managed to increase their numbers and hopefully continue to do so. I would also like to congratulate the 1st XV in reaching the County Championship Final at Twickenham and thank Simon Wright and his team of coaches and selectors. Congratulations must also go to all the members of the County that gained International honours this season along with Mark Cueto and Len Davies in their New Years Honours. Finally to all the players, coaches, supporters of Cheshire clubs, can I wish you a successful season ahead and hopefully get to meet up with all those clubs I missed last season. Yours in Rugby Paul Warrington Paul Warrington President 07929634228 (M) 0151 639 4366 (H) [email protected] 4 PAST PRESIDENTS 1880-83 H. M. Blythe 1979-81 P. G. Turner 1883-04 J.W.H.
