Godolphin Junior Academy RWC2023 session

Slough RFC was pleased to support Godolphin Junior Academy with their Rugby World Cup celebrations.

During the tournament each class was allocated a team to follow and the winning class won a Rugby training session with Slough RFC.

Youth section coaches Laurence and Martin took the winning class through a few of the skills, drills and games that the club uses before finishing with a game of Touch Rugby. Pupils were enthusiastic and keen and seemed to enjoy the session

Laurence and Martin also visited other classes to award prizes to the winners of a Rugby poetry competition and donated 5 Rugby balls for the school to use.

Godolphin Junior Academy said ‘Thank you so much for arranging for your coaches to provide a session today. The children loved it and didn't want to go home.
The coaches were fantastic, so inspiring, professional, and caring.
Thank you also for the fantastic gift of the Rugby balls it has made our pe teachers day!
Once again thank you so much it was an amazing afternoon’

Leaflets were given to the school to hand out to all pupils and we hope to see a few join us over the next few weeks for a free taster session.

Cippenham Primary School

Slough RFC was pleased to run an after-school rugby taster session at Cippenham Primary School.

Youth section coaches Laurence and Mary took twenty year 5 pupils through a few of the training games used by the club’s own youth section before finishing with a tag rugby match.

Pupils seemed to enjoy the session and there were some excellent skills on display as well as good TREDS values.

This was the first in a series of after-school taster sessions with coaches returning once the new season begins to complete sessions for other year groups.
