  • 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.

  • Leicester Lions V Tynedale
    WELCOME AT the second time of asking, this afternoon we extend the warmest of welcomes to the players, officials and supporters of one of the oldest rugby clubs in the world, Huddersfield RUFC. The game was supposed to take place at the beginning of February, but fell victim to the weather - even though the rest of February proved to be the warmest and sunniest on record, with temperatures touching 23C in some back gardens. The Huddersfield club was originally formed in 1869 - seven years before Tynedale - and played a key role in the breakaway of clubs from Yorkshire and Lancashire in Victorian times to create the Rugby Football League. Rugby has come full circle since then, and league rugby is the name of the game, with Huddersfield enjoying one of the best spells in their long history. Huddersfield currently lie fifth in Division Two North on 79 points against Tynedale’s eighth on 72 points. On Saturday they lost heavily 58-22 away at Stourbridge, with former Tynedale winger Dan Rundle doing most of the damage which could augur well for the freescoring Tynedale backs today. They will certainly want to balance the books after their 24-21 loss at the Lockwood Park Brewery ground back in October. Huddersfield have won six of their 11 away matches, but Tynedale had an exceptional home record winning nine and drawing one of their 11 home games. Not since the opening home game on September 8th have Tynedale’s colours been lowered at Corbridge. Games between the two sides have traditionally been very close, with a difference of just four points in Tynedale’s favour in the aggregate scores over the seven games they have played since their first meeting in 1994.
