September 2007

Hi – thanks for all the hard work everyone. Lots of you have put in the hours this summer and it is paying off.

The food is great. I have had two pre-match meals now; good local roast pork and today against Wellington RFC roast beef. Love it. The club looks great. The pitches are in good condition and the fencing and advertising is making the club look good. There is a good vibe and the feedback has been very positive. The website seems to be working - it is full of useful information and fixtures and reports and interesting news items.

On the pitch the situation is coming together. The Colts are steaming and the play is hard and committed – pretty much in the mould of Chris and Lee Greatrex – the coaches. The senior squad is still growing and training well together. Johnny Wakem is doing a fantastic job – the seconds will do well this season and get back up a league where they should be, and then onward and upward! The first team are beginning to gel on the pitch. The game against Wellington RFC had lots of positives – we will have to dig in and make the bigger hits but that will come. Lee Webber’s work with the backs is looking good there have been some great running lines. Steve Rush is building on the positives and we are winning a lot of ball and looking good in attack.

The junior section is buzzing. There has been masses of commitment from all the coaches – we have hundreds of people at the club on Sunday mornings – they all get fed by Dukes and Spex is a star behind the bar after a lot of hard work on the pitch by all the kids. All the age groups have full fixture lists and the girls now have fixtures – all this can be checked on this website.

We have club to be proud of.

The sponsorship and advertising is still coning in and local business has been very supportive. Thanks to you all.

The club committee continues to meet each month and sub committees are puling together to move things forward. We have great new club kits and a cool ‘Tavistock RFC Clothing’ range (I know) - have a look at the ‘Merchandise’ pages.

There are still unresolved issues with the front pitch - the finance sub-committee is looking into the options. I will keep you posted as and when I can. I am developing and way forward with the junior and senor sections of the club - we are looking at development paths for junior players and the senior club teams can progress as far as they wish – I will support them all the way. We will be looking to create a tour committee and also be aiming to ‘share’ expertise throughout the club – ‘borrowing’ coaches and players from senior teams and using them across the age groups – lots to do - all good. I have the energy. And the desire. I love the game.

We are still looking for more Vice Presidents, business that want advertising hoardings – great for local business – and people to get involved.

If anyone has anything positive to offer this a good place to be.

See you soon, come for a great lunch and a good day out,
