The Minutes of the Annual General Meeting held on 28th June, 1957, were confirmed and signed. Mr. A. MarshaIl:-" As is customary, the Report which is before you and which l ask you to accept is in the nature of a synopsis of the happenings of the past season .. It also reflects in some measure the work of your Committee during the year under review, but only in a general way, for no report could cover adequately the thousand and one items of debate and the ramifications of the Administration in general. C The Report has been circulated to aIl Clubs and brief reference need be made to certain only of the several paragraphs. In the matter of congratulations-it is perhaps invidious to mention names in a field of mu ch com­ munal effort and that is why none is printed in this Report, but the services of certain people caU for special remark. International Matches. We congratulate the players on their being chosen to represent England, and especially the Chairman of Selectors, Mr. Carston Catcheside, on the success of their choosing, and thank him for his vast interest and work. Twickenham. Covered by the two-line announcement that aIl is now weIl with the South Terrace is a success story of man y and anxious meetings, of conflicting advices fro'm experts, of bold decisions difficuIt to determine and with heavy responsibilities attaching, resulting finally in a reduction of expenditure amounting to many thousands of pounds. Our thanks and congratulations are due to the Ground Committee and to its Chair­ man, Mr. Ramsay. Laws. The considerable work of the previous year in preparing for the meeting of the International Board in January last has been matched this year with the work of analysing and implementing the conclusions reached by that Body. The Chairman of your Laws Committee, Mr. Cyril Gadney, has shouldered his responsibility in a way inimitable and typical of his thoroughiless in these matters: we should be failing, did we not give expression to our thanks and appreciation.· /nsurance. It is difficult to understand that less than half the Clubs in membership with the Union have thought fit to avail themselves of the admirable coyer provided by the Unions' Insurance Scheme at such low cost. The Scheme·is recommended for careful consideration by aIl those Clubs not already participating. Loans. It is un der this heading that the function of the Union to give tangible aid to Clubs and to the game generally is most apparent. A vast amount of work is involved each year in the negotiation of loans, and the services of the Hon. Asst. Treasurer, Mr. Eddie Saunders, in this matter must not go unremarked. Charitable Trust. • Much good can accrue from the setting up of a charitable trust and the project has been brought to fruition largely through the pertinacity and drive displayed by Sir Wavell Wakefield, at one time in the face of some opposition-great credit is due to him. Television. By and large, the television of matches has contributed to a marked expansion of the field· of interest in our game, to its ultimate good. Our aim must be to secure that Rugby Union Football is always presented in a light compatible with its tradition for robust, full-blooded sportsmanship, goodwill, and good fellowship. School Leavers. 15 years to 16 years. The question of catering for the se boys is presenting a problem which is fast becoming nation-wide, and it is a complex one, especial1y in those Counties where no provision has been made in the pa st. Your Committee has debated the subject at length and fee1s that perhaps the County Constituent Bodies are best fitted to rriake the initial move towards securing an organisedand unified attempt to meet the needs locally. In conclusion, a word to the general personnel of our Counties and our Clubs-Officers, Committee men, and other helpers-and on the visits l have been able to make. It is uplifting, and yet a humbling experience for any President to discover what is being done by so many in so many ways, to present our game to the young men of our land, to foster and develop it when 3 it has been taken up, and to main tain it in those places where it has become the accepted thing-all without any thought of kudos, glamour or like reward. To you and to those thousands of you up and down the country who are giving in this way so generously, we declare our acknowledgment of your services and our warmest thanks and approbation.

Welcome to Silver Leys for our final home game before Christmas and of course 2016. I would especially like to welcome the Players, Officials and Supporters of Exmouth RFC. Everyone lucky enough to be here for our last home match against league leaders Chinnor will agree that they witnessed a compelling game. Even better it resulted in us registering a five point win over our rivals whilst restricting them to just the one try bonus point. Whilst the outcome of the match was never going to have a decisive impact on either team’s future. Our victory certainly made things a lot tighter at the top and sent the majority of those present, home with a smile on their face. I did say that a vocal crowd would make all the difference and so it proved. In the process we also discovered that we have some very capable ‘Banter-mime villains’ in our midst –Boo-Hiss!! Last Saturday at Redingensians was just as exciting. We managed to snatch a bonus point victory from half-way down the throat of defeat.

  • Edition 10: 20Th September 2013
    Edition 10: 20th September 2013 Rugby World Cup 2015 Lead Up and Legacy Activity The RFU launched the seven strands of its national Lead up and Legacy plan on October 31st 2012. The aim of this is to set out an overall framework against which national resource will be invested in the lead up to RWC 2015 with the aim of increasing interest and participation in the game. Whilst many Clubs, CBs, Schools, Colleges, Universities and other bodies are working hard to develop local projects to meet identified local need these seven strands are areas in which we will invest national resource to create change in Rugby communities across the country. It is hoped that those delivery bodies that have not yet identified their focus will focus in on these areas and take action to improve provision and opportunities against these themes. Six Regional Activation and Legacy Groups are now up and running and are working to add value to the seven strands and to engage partners from outside of the immediate rugby community in supporting the efforts of those within it. Each group is populated by representatives from CBs and from the wider community. Attached as an appendix to this CB update is a brief overview of progress against the seven strands along with listings of clubs/projects etc involved to date – this will be updated for each issue. In addition to the work against the seven strands strong working relationships have been established with England Rugby 2015, the Organising Body for the tournament itself, and an update on relevant areas are also included in the appendix.

Built, we understand, in around 1650 with later additions in the 19th and 20th centuries. The property is arranged over two floors with the principal access to the ground floor being on the eastern side of the property. In practice, an entrance on the south side into a boot room then into the kitchen beyond tends to be used on a more regular basis (an alternative entrance is located on the northern side of the house providing direct access from the driveway). The traditional family kitchen features a gas and electric fired range cooker and leads to a utility room located to the rear of the house. The remainder of the ground floor features two charming reception rooms in the form of a dining room and a sitting room with inglenook fireplace housing a log burner. There is a large storage area, cellar and walk in larder. To the first floor are four double bedrooms, a family bathroom and separate WC. Of particular note are the two bedrooms to the rear of the property which both enjoy enchanting views over the garden and the South Downs.

    FOOTBALL, the Rugby sort not that awful game soccer. Back in the 1960’s the young blades of Perranzabuloe spent their summer days lounging on the beach, playing cricket, surfing or indulging in the newest beach activity of surf life saving. There followed warm summer evenings also spent on the beach or possibly chatting to the girls in one of the local pubs. A new ‘fad’ however had recently crossed the Atlantic. I was prone to satisfy my needs in this quarter in Newquay (in the Toddle-Inn or the 46), but the youth of Perranporth had the Galleon. The coffee bar had arrived in Cornwall! A globetrotting South African, Don Russell took over the Galleon in 1962 and started the conversion of the restaurant into a coffee bar. The local soccer club would use the bar, usually on a Sunday. Don however was a rugby football man! He had represented the South African Air Force playing against the RAF in Italy in his younger days, during the Second World War. The local lads had invariably played rugby at School but the only nearby clubs were some distance away. Don cajoled about twenty able recruits into forming a team. Although the Galleon was the spiritual home of the club the inaugural meeting was held up in the Droskyn field car park. There were problems, there always are, but nothing is insoluble. They had no kit, they had no pitch, it’s the little things like that that can get lesser men down, fortunately not Don Russell. The club was a bit of a family affair, Ellis Leah, the new clubs treasurer was Don’s brother-in-law.
