Minis

As chair, I would like to wish you and your family a very warm welcome to Dursley RFC, with over 500 registered players from U6-U18, we are one of the largest M & Y clubs in Gloucestershire.

After a successful fund-raising programme, our state-of- the-art changing room facilities are now open for all to enjoy for the foreseeable future.

However, the progress of the club does not stop there, as the old changing rooms are now being changed into social spaces and the kitchen is being expanded. All of this is being done to enhance your experience as being a member of this great club.

We are looking forward to an exciting season, full of great rugby and hope that players and parents alike get a great deal of satisfaction and pleasure from the season.

The club is extremely pleased to have continued support of RICOH as sponsor for the M & Y section.

Our club’s basic philosophy is to enjoy all aspects of rugby. It's a great game for making new friends and generally socialising. We should respect all coaches, players, officials and parents, either from our own club or from our opposing teams. Don't forget decisions can go for and against you, it may not feel fair, but please enjoy the games and most of all have fun.

DRFC implement codes of conduct for players, coaches, supporters and child protection. To this end all our coaches and Volunteers are all DBS checked. Health and Safety of our players is paramount, that is why all our coaches hold the relevant coaching qualification and other relevant qualifications. We take great care to promote safe rugby at Dursley.

To conclude, we wish to play good rugby and get as many children as possible running around and
having fun on a Sunday morning in what is undoubtedly the most beautiful setting in the country.

Enjoy the rugby, enjoy Dursley Rugby Club.

James Smillie (Chair)
