ANNOUNCEMENT
@ 1pm | By Ys & Jem

After much consideration we have decided it is time that we end our work with the website. Our dedication to the site has waned this season so much so that we've only been able to attend a handful of games. Therefore we think it would be better to let someone else take over the running of the site.

We of course will continue to support TUMBLE RFC and would like to thank everyone who helped and supported the site over the last three years. Especially Eales, Ken, Steve, Gwyn, Ewan, Roger and the team (the player profiles were always fun to read!).

This means the club is now looking for a new webmaster/s. If you have good HTML skills and are familiar with cpanel and are interested, please email Steve Lewis. Thanks.

We will continue on at the website until the end of February or a new owner is found, whichever one happens first.

Thanks, boys, and good luck with the rest of the season. We'll see you down the pub!

Love, Ysabel & Jemma.


ANNOUNCEMENTS

The website is looking for a new webmaster. Any one with good HTML skills and some cpanel knowledge and the hours of dedication to put into the site, can you please email Steve Lewis. Thanks.

With the club now going from strength to strength the present numbers on the Committee are being stretched even more than usual. We need your support to help the club move forward. If you are interested contact any of the club officials, details can be found by clicking the CLUB link.

Anyone interested in attending a First Aid Course please contact Phil Hewitt or any club official. It is hoped to run a course early in the New Year.
