SPONSOR OF THAMES VALLEY RUGBY Message from the Union Tena koutou katoa, a warm welcome to 2021 and this year’s edition of the Thames Valley Rugby Union Handbook. It needs mentioning of how well everyone right through NZ have done to remain resilient through the impact of COVID-19 last year, and ongoing. I have personally seen this resilience from our clubs and teams, especially in the way they have been open to change, been flexible and creative to make rugby happen in our Valley, the best way possible. I am excited at what lies ahead for 2021. We are fortunate to have H.G. Leach and Co. back again for 2021, sponsoring the Club Rugby competitions. This is a fine example of local sponsorship, from genuine people who see value in Valley Rugby. We thank H.G. Leach and Co. for their ongoing support. With a change to the draw format this year due to feedback from what our participants wanted, we have 8 Senior A teams and 9 Senior B teams competing in the 2021 club season. We wish them all luck in their pursuit of their respective honours. The Club Finals for this year are to be held at Thames Rugby and Sports Club on 17 th July 2021. We look forward to our Heartland coaching team having their first crack at the comp as the new coaching and management team. The team remains unchanged from 2020 and will be led jointly by Joe Murray and David Harrison, Assistant Coach Matt Rolston, with Matt Bartleet in the role of Resource Coach. There is a huge amount of talent in our Valley, lets see what they can do for us this year, and let us all get behind them to make it happen. We are once again fortunate to have Kelly Plummer agree to stay on, re-elected as President and Historian for 2021. Ted Engebretsen also stays on in the position of Patron of the Union again this year. As General Manager, I feel privileged and honoured to lead the TVRFU team of staff, with the support from the TVRFU Board. Together, we make a great team and strive to deliver rugby in the Valley, the best we possibly can. To all our loyal sponsors, advertisers and supporters, The Thames Valley Rugby Union cannot operate and perform without you. You have travelled the COVID-19 journey together with us and shown your amazing support all the way through. Thank you for all that you do for TVRFU.
