The club is not just about the 1st XV and the 2nds, 3rds and 4ths have had some mixed results.

All Senior Players. (active - and not so active).

Gents,

Following a slightly shaky start to the season, the 1st XV has bounced back with some great performances.

However, the club is not just about the 1st XV and the 2nds, 3rds and 4ths have had some mixed results.

This season we have found it difficult to put out 4 teams on some Saturdays - either through injuries or lack of availability.

We are not alone with this issue! Planned fixtures have been postponed or cancelled at short notice due to opposition sides finding it difficult to field teams.

OK, so not the end of the world – and an unexpected free day when it happens.

Nevertheless, there are consequence, with a potential loss of revenue and direct costs when food has been ordered and then goes to waste.

The coming weekend is another 4 team Saturday.
The 1sts and 2nds are at Matlock and the 3rds and 4ths have home fixtures.

Tuesday night is the first look at team selection for the following Saturday - so please get on the player Facebook site and let us know your availability.

Alternatively, leave a message/text/WhatsApp/email, with your availability to any of the following:

1sts: Mark Byrom: 07779 089401. 2nds: Richard Byrom: 07816 522422. 3rds: Tom Lee: 07825 912201. 4ths Martin Brown: 07758 739293.

It makes a big, big difference when we receive an early indication of your availability. It only takes 10 seconds to say “Yes” or “No” - but it’s a massive help to the team managers and your fellow team mates! Much better that you are chasing us for a game, rather than the other way around!

Finally, a reminder that October 28th is a ‘Cup’ weekend - and we are still in it.

Newark have a home tie in the third round of the RFU Intermediate Cup on Sat Oct 28 versus Old Laurentians from Rugby. Ko 2.15pm.

Delay that Christmas shopping!!!!!

Many thanks,

Pete Mitchell.

Director of Rugby.
