The Senior Squad will be putting their normal fuzzy Sunday morning heads to one side this season as they look to support the Mini and Junior Teams within the club.
Pioneered by ex 1st XV captain Richard Pepperell, the members of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd XV will be attending training and matches on Sundays throughout the season to add their own "expertise and knowledge" to the already excellent coaching the junior members of the club already recieve.
Utility back Pepperell, himself and experienced rugby coach, explained the benefits of the programme. "It's all about bringing the club closer together," he explained, "Many of the senior squad have been asking about working with the Mini and Juniors for a few years now and it seems an obvious programme to put into place. We hope that both sections of the club will benefit from it."
The following players will be attending Mini and Junior sessions on these dates.
