It was a great pleasure to receive the news that Newbury RFC was awarded the Wadworth Team of the Month award for September.
Under a 3 year sponsorship deal between the South West Leagues and Wadworth, the 140+year old brewery has given its name to the county leagues in Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Dorset & Wilts, Gloucestershire and Oxfordshire as well as South West 1 East and Southern Counties North and South.
Earlier this year, South West Rugby in conjunction with Wadworth launched a ‘team of the month award’ for those taking part in the sponsored leagues; and each month during the season there are 5 winners (one from each County area).
The awards, decided locally, go to clubs that have had a noteworthy month; and each receives a supply of Wadworth Ale to mark their achievement.
