Millwall RC has been awarded RFU accreditation

I'm delighted to announce that Millwall Rugby Club is now an RFU Accredited Club.

David Leftley and I have been working with our RFU Rugby Development Officer to achieve this status that demonstrates our commitment to;

• retaining and developing players
• recruiting new players
• recruiting and retaining high quality coaches, volunteers and referees
• the effective and efficient management and governance of the Club
• integration with the local community
• and rugby's core values of teamwork, respect, enjoyment, discipline and sportsmanship.

The award was presented at the Essex County RFU Annual Dinner and Presentation Evening on Friday 8th June.

This is an ongoing process but the award acknowledges the effort and commitment of the members of the club. It gives the club credibility with local authorities and educational establishments and confers the status of the RFU brand to attract potential sponsors.

The certificates and banner will soon be displayed in the clubhouse and the logos on our website.

Thank you to everyone for helping the club achieve this status.
