Planting Red Roses for the future!

Having had girls play in the Mini-Midi teams of Old Brentwoods RFC Acorns since 2013, we are very excited to announce that our 10-year Anniversary in September will see the results of a big recruitment drive across all schools in the Brentwood District to greatly increase the girls section of the club.

Whether it's Year 6 girls in Primary & Prep Schools moving into Year 7, or girls already in secondary who will play in joint age group teams (Yr 8/9 & Yr 10/11) we are pulling out all the stops to ensure there is a top-class Girls Rugby offering in Brentwood.

In a town the size of Brentwood we know there is enough interest such that girls should not have to travel anywhere to enjoy playing club rugby at the weekends!

In the off-season this summer there will be plenty of fun to be had at the club. Weekly get-togethers will be planned for fitness, sporting and social reasons; this will help grow a team spirit in their respective age groups whereby they can all enjoy the excellent, safe social facilities at the OBs.

Summary of our facilities:

- Excellent pitches

- Safe environment

- Redeveloped 1st XV arena (ongoing)

- Newly refurbished clubhouse

- Free parking

- Pitch access for personal fitness training

- Reasonable Annual Subscription

- New changing rooms planned

- In summary, arguably the best amateur club sports facilities & infrastructure in the district!

Personnel:

- Experienced Level 2 Coach + others joining

- Numerous supportive parents of present players who want the very best for their girls!

- OBRFC Club Coaches who work in local schools to spread the word

- Full Girls Rugby Committee in place for 2023-2024 season

We sincerely hope the above inspires local girls to get in touch to find out more and join our club. Please email: Recruitment.OBRFC@gmail.com for more information! We look forward to hearing from you soon!

Very best regards,

The OBRFC Committee
