As the season heads towards its conclusion, there’s still a lot to do and lots to plan for next season. That planning will begin soon, so please look for an upcoming volunteer event we are planning to hold, both to thank our existing volunteers across the club, plus hopefully recruit a few more. We would …
It’s pretty safe to say it’s been a pretty turbulent first half of the season, with further changes coming in the new year (and that’s not even Eddie Jones or Wayne Pivac!).
