The newly elected Club executive committee has been working hard over the last two months planning and brainstorming ideas that will promote Rugby Union in the Medowie and surrounding communities in the future.

The new Club President Johan Kruger said, “I am very proud of my executive team and believe the positive energy and enthusiasm that comes from the new members will make the coming season a successful one.”

On Tuesday 4 December the team met with Michael Howell, the Junior Rugby development representative from NSW Rugby Union to discuss some ideas that will benefit the Medowie and surrounding communities.

The meeting was considered a major success as NSW Rugby steps up to lend a hand in developing junior players.

Under nine Junior Lucas Stokes said, “I love being part of the team and can’t wait to be on the field.”

There are some promising events coming up early in the new year starting with a junior rugby development camp hosted in Armidale from 13-17 January 2019.

The development camp is designed to improve players skills supported by high profile coaches including NSW Rugby Union representatives.
