I understand coaching is a thankless task but I believe the blame lies with them.My lad plays u11's and every week if not top tackler he is in the top 3 but cannot get his hands on the ball cos 2-3 kids have it superglued to their hands.At the moment they can't buy a win but the coach will not change the way they play and 2 weeks ago packed it in but is still doing it even tho somebody else is doing it.When you speak to him he hides behind the club and is arrogant but yet as a parent you are expected to just stand and watch while the spirit is drained from the team and they just argue between themselves to the extent that 2 have gone this week.

Best wishes everyone !

Happy New Year to all, anyone know when first fixture will be for 13's?? 1st weekend in March??

Eastmoor Dragons Under 13’s (school year eight) are holding an open invitation training session on Tuesday 15th Janaury at 6.30. We welcome any new players to the sport, players who have been out of the game and want to get back into rugby and anybody who wishes to sample a training session at a different club.

If you, or you know of anybody, who wants to sample Junior Rugby please join us for a training session to experience the greatest game – no experience necessary, just a willingness to learn and have fun in the process.

This will be our first session back after the winter break so I’m sure there must be some lads wanting to put down their games controllers, get some fresh air & burn off the excess chocolate and Christmas pudding !!

Training nights are Tuesday and Thursday 6.30-7.30
