and welcome to the official website for the
Junior Section Blandford Rugby Football Club.
The Junior Section of Blandford RFC encompasses
players from 6 years old upwards and is continuing to grow in strength. We
believe that any child should be given the opportunity to enjoy the fun of
playing rugby whilst learning other skills at the same time.
As a family focused section it is not unusual to find
whole families involved in some way or other not necessarily on the pitch. If
you would like to become more involved and take up coaching or just helping out
then please contact the chairman. The Junior
Section is run entirely by volunteers and new 'recruits' are always
welcome.
Training is on Sunday mornings from 1015 until 1200
on the sports pitches of the Blandford School, which are accessed via the
Milldown entrance. The Main Clubhouse is located in East Street, however on
most mornings the Tuck Shop is open for hot drinks. Noel is also normally busy
running the shop where you can purchase items such as
team shirts, socks and shorts.
If you have not played rugby before then come along
and give it a go. You can try over a couple of weekends and then you must
register. Registration with the RFU then entitles you to play in matches and
tournaments and you are also covered by the club's insurance policy (provided
by the RFU). You will also have to pay your season subscription, as a
non-profit making organisation, these funds are used to provide team shirts for
matches and cover any administration costs in running the club. If you have a
brother or sister who is also interested there is a reduced rate for additional
family members.
Please navigate around our website using the menu
above or alternatively try the site map.

Please be aware that the playing fields form part
of the Blandford School grounds. Under Local Education Authority rules dogs are
NOT permitted on site. You will, however, find an area of open space
called "The Milldown" across the road from the school entrance where you are
more than welcome to exercise your dogs. |
