Bring a Friend Day a Great Success

It may not have been the most successful day on the pitch for England, but there were still plenty of winners at East Grinstead RFC last weekend.

With a new season now firmly underway, the East Grinstead Women’s team held a ‘Bring a Friend’ day (Sunday 3 November 2019), led by Susannah Funnell, EG Women’s Chair and Jo Cox-Goodsell, Fixture Secretary, East Grinstead RFC.

“These are exciting times for the EG Women” said Susannah Funnell. “As a club we are working hard to offer rugby to women of all different age groups. By staging the ‘Bring a Friend’ day, it was an opportunity to welcome newcomers to the sport and for women to experience rugby in action and be part of something special. This is the start of our coaching development plan and it was so exciting to see so many new faces at the club. We are not only looking to encourage people to come and play the game, but at the same time helping us grow our competitive team moving forward. Thank you to all those who brought their friends along and to our coaches, Alex Chown, Matt Marriott and Tom Kiernan for their great input on the day.”

The EG Women’s Rugby Team are recruiting new players to the team. Whether you have played before or have never participated in any sport whatsoever – come along and give it a go. Have fun, stay fit and make new friends. Training is held every Tuesday night from 7.00pm-8.30pm at East Grinstead RFC, Saint Hill Road.
