  • Newsletter July 2005
    Newsletter July 2005 Message from the Chairman I am glad that we are able to resume issuing a Newsletter to members of the Club œ thanks to Chris Lamb who has nobly volunteered to take on the role of editor. Sadly, my first task here is to mention the recent deaths of two of our long-standing members, John Durden and Gillian James, to whose families we extend our sympathies. A short appreciation of both of them appears later in this Newsletter. Looking ahead, Club events through to August next year are set out in the 2005/2006 programme which accompanies this Newsletter. Its contents largely follow the pattern of previous years, but there are two points which I should like to draw to your attention. First, for a few days around Christmas, Bromley Mytime (the new managementspeak name for that part of the local authority which deals with public hall lettings) has denied us access to our usual playing accommodation. Fortunately, we have been able to arrange for the Club meetings affected to be held in the Methodist Church hall just along the road, which you will remember we used for several weeks some time ago when the Public Halls were closed for alterations. Second, the Sam Russell Championship Pairs competition will again be held over two sessions, in June 2006. Your Committee is, however, considering some change to its format in view of criticism from some members that the entry for a major Club competition like this should not be restricted to a maximum of 24 pairs. The reason for the restriction was to enable the competition to be on an all-play- all basis.

  • Future of Rugby Union in Australia Submission 1
    I RUPA 29 September 2017 Ms Jeanette Radcliffe Secretary Standing Committee on Community Affairs References Committee By Online Submission RE: INQUIRY INTO THE FUTURE OF RUGBY UNION IN AUSTRALIA Dear Ms Radcliffe Thank you for your letter of 11 September 2017 inviting a written submission from RUPA with respect to the Inquiry into the Future of Rugby Union in Australia by the Senate Standing Committee on Community Affairs References Committee. On behalf of its members, Australia's professional Rugby players, RUPA has in 2017 been particularly vocal in advocating for the retention of all five Australian Super Rugby teams as being in the best interests of Rugby in Australia. Throughout the Australian Rugby Union and SANZAAR's protracted process to reduce the number of Australian teams competing in the Super Rugby competition beyond 2017 from five to four, RUPA has been more prevalent in our media presence and commentary than has been our recent nature. We have expressed our organisational views and those of players' collectively in numerous media articles and interviews this year. Central to our publicly articulated positions has been eight statements which RUPA distributed publicly between February and September of this year which we provide for the purposes of the Inquiry. Each of those statements are attached and in summary their details are: Item , Date · 1: Title of Release · -, - ' I 1 16 February 2017 Players united in support of five Australian Super Rugby teams 2 30 March 201 7 RUPA launch "Stronger as Five" online petition 3 9 April 2017 RUPA responds to Super Rugby restructure 4 17 May 2017 RUPA supports VRU in calling for ARU General Meeting 5 21 June2017 RUPA response post General Meeting 6 5 July 2017 Battle only between the white lines 7 11 August 2017 RUPA response to ARU decision 8 5 September 2017 RUPA response to dismissal of Rugby WA appeal Please feel free to contact me should you wish to discuss the contents of this letter further.

Present: Steve Eginton (Chairman) Gerard Faulkner (Vice-Chairman) Max Bavin (EBU Chief TD) Sally Bugden (EBU Vice-Chairman) Barry Capal (EBU General Manager) Heather Dhondy Paul Hackett Sandra Landy David Muller Sandra Claridge (Secretary) The Committee observed a minute’s silence in memory of Raymond Brock. 1 An apology for absence was received from Peter Stocken (EBU Chairman). 2 MINUTES OF THE MEETING HELD ON 7TH NOVEMBER 2007 The minutes were signed as true record. 2.1 Matters arising 2.1.1 Register of U28 players The list was noted. 2.1.2 Universities Championship Sally Bugden reported that whilst England had been approached as a possible host of a Universities Championship, the Board would assist in facilitating the hosting of an event, but could not make funding available. In general terms, the Committee recognised England’s responsibility as one of the larger members of the European Bridge League to host an international event. However, it was noted that other NBOs had borne significant financial losses from major championships, and it was not believed to be in the best interests of the Union’s membership to offer to host an event unless sufficient sponsorship could be attracted. It was also considered that funding of World and European events should be reviewed as a priority. 1 Selection Committee Minutes – 21st February 2008 Sandra Landy said that it was unlikely that we could fund major events in the mid to near future, which was generally agreed.
