House of Commons, 11^th of May 2013

The date for our end of season dinner at the House of Commons has been set for Saturday, May 11, 2013.   

Unfortunately, we are still waiting on them to provide the pricing and new banquet menu for us to set the ticket prices.  They will be along the same lines as last year though.  For those of you new to the club last year’s prices ranged from £60-90.  

The member prices will be cheaper than non-members, so make sure that you’re paid up!

If you’d like to have an opinion on the after party, send your suggestion to socialsecretary@millwallrugby.com.  Thanks everyone!

Millwall RC steps up at Twickenham

Millwall Rugby Club's name was unveiled by club members Michael Paling, Sophie Morris and David Paling, on a step at Twickenham Stadium ahead of the RBS 6 Nations England vs France clash on Saturday.  

The club name was placed on the step as a reward for Millwall RC signing up for NatWest RugbyForce in 2013.  In total 176 clubs were awarded and saw their name appear on the steps at the home of England Rugby.

Phil Vickery, former England prop and World Cup winner is a supporter of the NatWest RugbyForce programme and said: “Coming from a very small club, Bude RFC in Cornwall, I know how important the rugby club is within the local community, and how much support they need. NatWest RugbyForce is all about improving club facilities to help safeguard their future. The NatWest RugbyForce club steps at Twickenham on Saturday were a reminder of where rugby began for many of our international players – at grassroots clubs.”
