The London Wasps duo helped clear overgrown areas to create the additional playing space needed for the club’s mini and junior section, which now has more than 300 members. The changing rooms were also given a makeover to better cater for female teams and officials. James Haskell said: “I like to think of myself as a bit of a DIY expert so it’s been great to get involved at Weybridge. There’s been nearly 100 volunteers, an incredible BBQ and an atmosphere which proves why a rugby club is like a second home. I know that I owe a lot to my first club Maidenhead RFC.

Said Paul Murphy, President of the RFU, “We are delighted to Tracy Edmundson welcome Tracy as the first elected female RFU Council member. Her election is a landmark one for the RFU but she represents the important and growing contribution being made by women and girls to rugby in clubs and Constituent Bodies in England. “At a time when participation figures in women’s and girls’ rugby are at an all-time high, an increasing number of women are being elected to senior posts in our clubs and A new kind of lineout at Twickenham Constituent Bodies.” Continued top left of page 2… 1 Continued from page 1… Continued from page 1… Will we ever forget that lineout take from Lewis anniversary of England winning the World Cup.

For the full text of this licence, please go to: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/2.5/ Rugby Union Men: Body Concerns by Natalie Darko Doctoral Thesis Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the award of PhD Doctoral Thesis of Loughborough University (July 2012) Natalie Darko 1 Abstract Existing research shows that increasing numbers of young men are dissatisfied with the appearance of their bodies. Drummond (2002a; 2005; 2010) has found that men will use sport and health-related sports acts to conceal these concerns from others. Accordingly, men’s body dissatisfactions are documented less frequently because the practices drawn upon to conceal them are perceived as routine forms of masculine behaviour. Rugby union is one of the most popular sports played by young men in England. Historically, the male rugby player is culturally perceived as strong, tough and unemotionally articulate. Existing research draws attention to health issues, such as performance stress and injury that arise through participation in this sport. Research also shows that rugby union players are likely to experience concerns about gaining weight, yet these are disguised within the requirements of training for the sport. Although, there are studies that examine the constitution of masculinities, the experience of pain and injury and career transitions among rugby union players there are no studies, as yet, that examine how rugby union men experience body concerns and manage these experiences through their sport.
