This is a double for Verwood – they cancelled their home game as well. Naturally the points willl be awarded to Ventnor.

The 2nd XV game against Andover 4ths will now take place at Watcombe Bottom (not the Middle School). Kick off is at 3pm.

A reminder this is also a Vice President’s Day.

Yours James

The newly promoted 1st XV take on Verwood in Hampshire League Division Two at Watcombe Bottom whilst the 2nd XV play Andover 4ths in Merit Table 3 at the Middle School.  Both matches kick off at 3pm.

Ventnor Golf Club is sponsoring the 1st XV match whilst the 2nd XV game has backing from John Hilsum Associates.  Many thanks to both.

It is also our last Vice Presidents’ Day of the season so we are hoping to see plenty of  friends (old and new) at the club to help celebrate the 1st XV’s promotion to Hampshire Division One.

The clubhouse opens at 1pm and there will be a finger buffet generously supplied by Bookers of Sandown.

As you probably already know, the Annual Dinner Dance and Awards Presentation is taking place at the Ventnor Towers on Saturday 8th May.  The price of a ticket is a mere £23.  If you are looking to attend contact Zoe (07769 693 425) or Clare (07791 176 611).

Yours James

Birstall RFC Beard Off – 1st Jan til 20th March

Players to throw away their razors to help Rich!

Birstall RFC players will be growing beards to help raise money for the Richard Engelgardt Trust Fund.

During a pre-season training game against Aylestone St. James on Tuesday 18th August 2009 Richard Engelgardt tragically sustained a dislocated spine when a scrum collapsed. Though Richard is recovering well in Hertfordshires Stoke Mandeville Hospital he was informed during December that he is unlikely to ever walk again.

Club Secretary and Player David Bonser said ‘This is a great opportunity for the guys and the club to pull together to help raise some money for Richard as well as awareness of the fund. We will be shaving them off on the 20th March when we visit Vetnor RFC where Richards brother plays as part of our annual tour. The buzz about doing this between the lads has been fantastic and I’m looking forward to some of the horror cases that not shaving for 79 days will bring!’.

The club hope to raise at least £2,000 over the next 3 months and are grateful for any money people can give to help.
