The communicator ! The official magazine of North Midlands RFU and its Clubs & Supporters. Volume Two : Edition One August 2013 Welcome from the Editor. [email protected] In a recent survey of its member clubs North Midlands received undisputable evidence that the quality of communication between the Constituent Body( County) and these Clubs was poor and unacceptable. Within the consultation for the Constitutional Review currently being led by the new President Charlie Hemmings (Pershore) the issue of communication will be fully discussed and implemented. The new Secretary Rob Bray (Droitwich) is already introducing measures to improve the administration of the County and hopefully the new Handbook will have up to date contact information on County and Clubs’ contacts. One immediate step is to re-introduce this magazine and open it up to all North Midlands people to share information , have your say, seek advice and hear of the great work throughout the County. This is the pilot issue and the intention is for a better presentation in future however the content is the key to its success and that will rely on YOU. All copy and constructive criticism ( or even praise !) is welcome please ensure we have plenty from you for the October/November edition.. North Midlands Rugby Football Union Limited. 2013 -14. President Charlie Hemmings. The County have entered another two year cycle and new President Charlie Hemmings has his own agenda for taking us forward during his stewardship and beyond. He shares his initial thoughts with our readers :- “I regard my election as President of North Midlands to be most humbling and an honour for which I feel extremely privileged. I hope I am able to deliver to my own self-imposed high standards and expectations where promotion, enjoyment and success of Rugby is at the heart of everything we do. The re-emergence of the The Communicator thanks to Peter Grace ,is what it says on the tin ! I am mindful that despite our best efforts communication between , North Midlands ,the three Domestic Unions and our Clubs is a considerable failing and it is evident there is a clear lack of understanding of the work undertaken to support and strengthen the Game in our County. This quarterly publication is intended as a two way conduit for good and bad news so please feel free to contribute to our next issue .It is early days and if your issue requires immediate action make contact with me, the functional Chair or your respective Domestic Union Representative to try to resolve your challenges. At the start of the new season I hope all North Midlands Clubs achieve their aspirations and I look forward to meeting many of you on my travels around the County. Charlie “ So there you are from the horse’s mouth. All of us who have worked with Charlie are aware of his tremendous drive and work rate and his commitment to North Midlands so prepare to be led ! I am sure that Charlie will respect the freedom of the “press” and The Communicator will consult the President and the officers on all matters however contact on the magazine content should come to the Editor( & anyone else appropriate ) please. The communicator 2. County Meetings. The first monthly Management Committee Meeting met on 5 August with a wide based agenda. In addition to the President and Secretary there were two new officers :- Michael Clarke (Worcester) Chair of Community Rugby. David Thomas (Tomo) ( Luctonians) Chair of Playing. The Communicator invited the various Committee Chairs to make their own brief contribution to this preseason issue and some are seen below. On Monday 2 September the Financial GM will be held at Dudley Kingswinford at 8.30 pm on the same night as the Full Committee. County CB finance is increasingly more relevant to our Clubs. The Secretary’s Role by Rob Bray. “ In my role as Secretary I am seeking to be the central point of communication, a very key word and action. It is therefore essential I am made aware immediately of changes to any individual or club contact. These fundamental details are essential for prompt distribution of material , courses ,events and policy changes. I will be responsible for the arrangements for organising of , recording of and distribution of Committee Meeting minutes and agenda. I shall be overseeing and where appropriate updating areas of the North Midlands RFU website. Fundamentally I shall endeavour to be the active individual hub for the Constituent Body.” Any one in any doubt by now that we want to COMMUNICATE !? Good luck Rob that is a lot of “endeavour”. COLIN MAJOR In recent months we, his committee colleagues and others have been very concerned that the normally robust Colin has been struggling with ill health. As a result of this he advised us that sadly he did not wish to succeed to Senior Vice President and then to County President in 2015/16 . However The Communicator brings reassuring news, for although Colin has retired from all of his North Midlands’ positions after 30 years leading the County youth development, recent tests showed his “ health to be excellent” and he will be able to continue with his work on the RFU Player Development Committee and as Chairman of Midlands Player Development. We are delighted to report that Colin has been nominated for Life Membership of the County which is the highest honour that can be bestowed on a servant of the Union. Proposed by the President and supported unanimously by the Management Committee the confirmation at the FGM is a formality. Thank you Colin. Michael Sampson speaks for us in an email to Colin “…your contribution to North Midlands youth rugby over the 30 years that I have been involved has been immense and I will personally greatly miss your input… Thanks on behalf of all the Ellesmere/Shropshire/North Midlands boys whose representative rugby playing days have been enhanced by your hard work and dedication over the years” AND SO SAY ALL OF US who know how much other work Colin has done on so many fronts including Community Rugby. The communicator 3. Community Rugby . Mike Clarke is new in post and is anxious to gain knowledge of our Clubs as soon is possible His is a key role including overviewing Funding & Facilities (Peter Grace: Five Ways OE), Safeguarding & Welfare and Volunteers ( Both Judith Phelps : Telford ), Club Development and Accreditation.(RDOs). He recently asked you clubs for nominations of your members for the RFU Leadership Academy held in the County this season. It is a great opportunity for aspiring administrators & leaders. Please email [email protected] as soon as you receive this magazine. Competitions by Chair Nigel Banwell.(Upton on Severn) . “Everything seems to be in position for the fast approaching start of the 2013-14 season. Leagues are sorted , clubs informed and fixtures can be found on the RFU website. The first round of the National and County Cups have been made and are on the websites. Bill Worth (Yardley) and John Atkin are remodelling the Reserve Team leagues which could follow the RFU format for their future 2nd XV league Review. I live in hope that the coming season will be less inclement and we can keep match disruption to a minimum. Good luck to all clubs for successful league and cup seasons and avoid relegation !” Referring to the RFU Competitions Review our Immediate Past President Paul Kaminski (Whitchurch) is a member of the RFU Review Group and advises that any changes to leagues/cups are likely to be introduced in 2015-16 but does not rule out 2014-15 as a possibility ! League rugby seems likely to be status quo or a decrease in numbers . This Review will effect all of our Clubs. Discipline by Secretary Peter Jordan (Warley). Chair is Dai Scard ( Birmingham & Solihull). “ 1. The IRB have decreed that there is no longer a “presumption of innocence”.Any player sent off is now SUSPENDED UNTIL THE CASE IS HEARD”. 2.It is now imperative that clubs contact Peter Jordan on 07710 016192 to confirm the sending off and agree an early date and advise if the case is contested. 3. Clubs and players need to make themselves available at short notice. 4. Because there will be more hearings with fewer cases the fee goes up to £20. 5. North Midlands continue to operate a policy of deterrent sentences for abuse of referees on top of the sentencing guidelines. Please make sure that your players are reminded of this. Have an enjoyable season. !” The best way to enjoy your season is to avoid meeting up with Peter & Dai. However they are the best in the business and if you do have a problem pick the phone up to Peter straight away. He is quite charming honestly ! Finance. Roger Parsons ( Edwardians) does not like to go on at clubs. However he will want your 2013/14 subscription promptly and he does need a copy of your annual accounts . Many clubs do not submit these and it is a rule of the RFU that you do – some day clubs will get penalised for not complying but more importantly they are very good health check for the CB who have a responsibility to every club. He is very knowledgeable on club incorporation - try him. THE COMMUNICATOR 4. My aspirations for 2013/14 by Dave Thomas Chairman of Playing. “To take the senior team to Twickenham for a successive season and win this time by playing expansive attractive rugby but with a pragmatic approach now that we are at a level where we should rightly be.

Foreword by John Douglas, Chairman of the Adult Competition Review Steering Group 1.1 Over the quarter of a century since competitive league rugby was introduced, much has changed within rugby and in society as a whole. Within rugby, anecdotal and statistical evidence indicates that most clubs field fewer teams now than they once did. The socio-economic environment in which our clubs operate has changed beyond all recognition and the pace of change is likely to continue to increase. With it the requirements of players, supporters and club administrators – in other words, our customers – will also change. Predicting and satisfying those future requirements has been the overriding concern of this review.

    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.

It seems a mere matter of minutes since I was invested as President by John Loynton last December. I have been very privileged to have been invited to serve as President and I have taken as full a part as my circumstances would The President allow. In a few short weeks, I will be handing over the Presidential ‘gong’ to Johnny Dugdale. I am personally delighted that he will be taking the job. He is a hard-working and valuable member of the committee. I must pay tribute to the OSA Committee. I have known members of your Committee for many years, but I had not, hitherto, appreciated the exceptional commitment and talent that goes into the running of the Association. There have been some challenges this year and many people have worked very hard to meet those challenges. It is, perhaps, unfair to single out individuals, as all make great contributions. I must, however, mention those with whom I have had the greatest interaction.

    The Mini & Youth Rugby Blueprint Roadshow October – December 2013 Feedback Report Summary The Mini & Youth Rugby Blueprint Roadshow took place between October and December 2013. The roadshow visited 27 venues around the country and was attended by more than 500 people. The purpose of the roadshow was to give all rugby stakeholders a chance to share their views on how we shape the mini, junior and youth game in the lead up to Rugby World Cup 2015. In recent years a great deal of work has gone into considering how the game is played, delivered and organised for young people up to the age of 18. The Age Grade Competition Review has been in process for a couple of years, working on producing a recommended competition and playing framework across clubs, schools and colleges. The aim of the blueprint roadshow was to share recent evidence from players highlighting why they play and why they might have stopped playing and to research the views of stakeholders on the best way forward for the game. The challenge is to provide a game format, playing opportunities and support based on the needs and wants of young people. By getting this balance right we aim to ensure that more young people start, remain and choose a lifelong friendship with rugby union, strengthening our clubs and growing the game in the communities around them. Roadshow Format and Method At each roadshow event, the audience was given an opportunity to consider feedback from players aged 7 – 18 about why they play rugby union (and sport in general) and the reasons why they stop playing.

Popular Religion, Culture and Politics in the Midlands, c. 1638-1646 Simon Charles Osborne Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Warwick Department of History February, 1993 Summary This thesis is a study of popular allegiance in five midland counties during the English Civil War, 1642- 1646. It considers the relationship between allegiance and popular religion and culture. It aims to provide a regional case study of popular reactions to the war, with particular reference to recent theories of allegiance, which have emphasised the role played by religion and culture. Although the approach is broadly chronological, religion and culture are discussed mainly in the first half of the thesis, and popular allegiance in the second. Chapter One surveys popular religion and culture in the region from c. 1603 to 1638. Chapter Two characterises popular politics on the eve of the Civil War. Chapter Three deals with popular religion and culture in the late 1630s and during the war. In particular, it considers whether or not distinct cultural regions had evolved by this time, and the nature and extent of popular puritanism and 'Anglicanism'.

Abstract This thesis provides an examination of the emergence and development of Sir Oswald Mosley’s British Union of Fascists in the Midlands between 1932 and 1940. It charts the fascist presence in four major cities: Birmingham, Stoke-on-Trent, Coventry and Leicester. The BUF is the largest and most important fascist movement to have ever existed in Britain. Mosleyite fascism in the Midlands as a region has never before been investigated and represents a significant gap in the historiography of British fascist studies. Alongside affording valuable insight into Mosleyite fascism at the regional level, the study will illuminate further understanding of the BUF nationally.
