COACHES BRIEFING

SUNDAY 21st October 2007

Will you and your coaching teams all be at training next Sunday, smiles on faces or all bokked out but either way feeling shabby…….

1. 7’s tickets: Kim has closed the books now so we will have to wait to see whether our members get what they asked for but it is out of our hands although Mini Rugby as a whole has a smaller allocation from the RFU than last year but bigger requirements so be prepared for some disappointments
2. Website: A look at each team’s pages indicates that a number of Head Coaches are not keeping their own updated in a full and timely fashion so please post or update coaches mugshots and contacts, squad photos and weekly reports ASAP and maintain this
3. HKU Festival on 25th November: I must have your team entries no later than 26th October
4. Courses: Hugh will update us on the non-contact and referees courses shortly (as many as possible please to attend but Head Coaches a must)
5. DeAT Festival: You should all have received an email from me enabling you to notify your squads whether they will be playing in the morning or afternoon of 4th November but the match schedule will be published at a later date
