Changes to Monday & Wednesday Night Training

Wednesday nights are proving hugely popular, with numbers averaging at around 35-40. However this has meant it has been quite challenging designing coaching to suit the wide range of players attending, to keep it interesting and beneficial for everyone.

So with effect from tonight we are making some small changes to Monday & Wednesday nights. The changes mainly concern our Rugby Basics and Return to Rugby programmes.

Mondays: Adult Non-Contact Touch Rugby & Fitness
7.30pm until 9pm

(But please do your best to arrive from 7pm to help us get the lights out - don't leave it to your team mates)

• This will be Non-Contact Touch Rugby Games for Fitness (for Men & Women of all abilities). 
• On Monday nights we will now run our Rugby Basics programme and complete beginners (men and women) are welcome to start on a Monday night.
• All new players welcome.

Wednesdays: Adult Contact Rugby Training
7.30pm until 9pm

(But please do your best to arrive from 7pm to help us get the lights out - don't leave it to your team mates)

• Contact Rugby Training
• This will be run as separate sessions for Men & Women.
• On Wednesday nights the men's section will continue to run our Return to Rugby Programme aimed at people who've played a little before and want to get back into the game. But if you're a complete beginner (and male) we recommend you start by coming just on Monday nights.
• Women's Wednesday sessions are unchanged and will continue to welcome complete beginners.

Return to Rugby & Rugby Basics - Saturday 13th December

We've now been running our Return to Rugby & Rugby Basics sessions for nine weeks and they have proven to be popular!

So we are running another session this Saturday again at 10am until 12 noon on Millwall Park, alongside Island Gardens DLR. Tim will be running this week's session for us.

It's ideal for:

• Men & Women who played at school, but haven't played for years, 
• Men & Women who have never ever played rugby before, 
• Men & Women who want to come back to rugby and pick it up again,
• Social members, volunteers or physios curious to learn more, 
• Touch Rugby players who'd like to learn a bit about the full Rugby Union game.
• Current third team players who would like to improve their technique
• Current players who'd like to learn about playing in a different position.

What to bring:

• Yourself ready to have fun.
• Some football or rugby boots if you have them (trainers are OK if you don't)
• Shorts & old t-shirt or rugby jersey that can get muddy
• Something warm and dry to put on afterwards
• a black bin bag to protect your bag if it rains
• Maybe a bottle of water

Please contact rugbybasics@millwallrugby.com for more info.

We plan to run these MOST Saturdays until further notice.

EVEN if you can't make this session but are interested, please do email rugbybasics@millwallrugby.com to let us know you're interested or signup for our club emails here.  

Hope to see you on Saturday!

4TH DEC THIRST THURSDAY

The nights are drawing in now and in the immortal words of that guy off game of thrones "winter's comin'..." so what better way to prepare than surround yourself by cozy surroundings and good company..... 

Unfortunately we can only offer the former,good company will have to be substituted for those stalwarts of hard hitting conversation that are the members of Millwall Rugby Club.

Expect such topics as:
- Since the creation of the bakewell tart bomb and the cockney bomb, is it morally correct to invent a haggis bomb for our cousins north of the border?
- are they yellow moustaches or some sort of marital aid?
- will anyone ever try jellied eels?
- who is up for going to see the darts?

...and many more discerning questions relevant to life in the urban jungle in 2014.

All this and more, (possibly including red shoes), at.....
