The WBRFC Vice Presidents
Wootton Bassett run a healthy Vice Presidents section whose aims are to support the club on and off the field in any way possible.
Home Lunches
Each season four home lunches are held prior to important league or cup fixtures. Between 60 and 80 Vice Presidents, Life Members and Guests attend. They enjoy a fine meal, rugby camaraderie and yes, a few beers before cheering on the boys.
"Away Day"
A recent innovation has seen the inauguration of an annual "Away Day" were the Vice Presidents travel to support the club at an away league fixture. This is always a well supported and enjoyable occasion.
Our Leader
The Vice Presidents are currently led by former club skipper George Loughlin who is assisted by numerous volunteers.
Our Former Leader
The section was previously led by veteran Alan 'Wing Commander' Belding who remains a legend in his own session. He lectures, very slowly, on a wide variety of subjects among the most interesting! being Chemical Toilet facilities in coaches and Motorway Coning Arrangements in Southern England. On both subjects, given a fair hearing he is perfectly capable of boring you senseless. He recently spent time in Australia meeting their cricket team. This was paid for by the MCC who had been told that he was our top slow bowler.
Get Involved - Just an e-mail away

If you have just moved into the North Wiltshire/Swindon area then this is a great chance to meet rugby fans like yourself, have an enjoyable meal, meet rugby people like yourself and watch a great game!
2010 Proposed Reunion Lunch
A number of ex-players have asked about the possibility of running a reunion lunch in co-ordination with the final Vice President Lunches scheduled for 2010. If you are an ex-player or supporter who might be interested in this please email George Loughlin gmloughlin@talktalk.net

The WBRFC Club and VP Group suffered a grievous loss when our friends where so sadly taken away from us.
We will never forget them.
