Beccs Fun Run

2008-04-14T12:52:00.000Z

Beccs Club Fun Run - There are 2 distances, which I think are 3 miles and 10 miles (but I could be wrong, in any case it'll be on the application forms, which will
be released nearer the time). This year it is on Sunday 6th July, so put it in your diaries. Those not wanting to run, Angela always needs marshals so please let her know if you can help with that(ABrdhrst@aol.com)

It's always a brilliant event and there's a barbeque afterwards, so a chance for a natter and a few pints too, hopefully in the sunshine.

Birthday Drinks

2008-04-14T11:00:00.000Z

Hello everyone,

On Saturday 3rd May I am having birthday drinks at the waterfront in streatham at 3pm onwards.

The pub is a very ? pub they serve pizzas (which are the best) alcohol (obviously) and cool music. Then after if we are still standing maybe back to house for more drinks and celebrations. Streatham is easy to get to from Bromley.

If you would like to come RSVP and i will send directions
I would love for as many of you to join me in celebrating my 27th year.
This is Bank holiday weekend so only really good excuses please.
Hope everyone is doing good and hope to see you soon!!!!

Love Willy

Race for Life - 20th July

2008-04-08T18:55:00.000Z

How do you all fancy doing the Race for Life this year at Regents Park on Sunday 20th July? Its only 5Km which is 3 miles so is both run and walkable. We could do it in our kit and raise awarness, sponsorship for a good cause and publicilty for the team.

There's still time to train for it, and we could run in 2 or 3 groups ie the walkers, the joggers and the runners?

Anyone fancy it? I've managed to persuade Vonnie, and, again, its another good social exercise that we will of course have to celebrate once we complete it :-)

End of Season Dinner

2008-04-08T17:01:00.001Z

The End of Season Dinner is planned this year for Friday 9th May at Sparrows Den.

As far as I am aware tickets have not gone on sale yet, but I will let you know as soon as they do.

It would be fantastic to try and fill 3 tables this year so please make every effort to attend, as you have worked damn hard this season and deserve it!!!

The price is around £30 and includes the marquee, dinner and I think there is wine on the tables but don’t hold me to this!!!
Now for the fun bit . . . .

Please could you send me your individual nomination for Players Player of the Season, 2007/08. I require a name and as much detail as possible as to why you have chosen this player.

Also, could you send me your most memorable moment of the season, could be on or off the pitch, again in as much detail as possible.

Thanks, Caz

Fancy Dress Theme for Sunday 25th Nov

2007-11-22T10:25:00.000Z

Hiya all,

Regarding the fancy dress theme after sundays game! I think im right in saying that sunday is our last game before crimbo, so whether you are playing or injured and watching or too young to play and watching, then fancy dress is a must for after the match!

While im on the subject just wanted to say good effort to you all after the Beckenham game with the Hallowean themed fancy dress, thought it was an awesome evening with fab costumes, so well done!

Anyway back to Sunday, cos i know you are all dying to know what it is, although if you went training tonight then Caz should have told you!

The theme is EMERGENCY SERVICES......

So, quite a wide choice there, so no excuses not to have a little evidence of the dress code required!

Also wanted to mention 15th Dec club xmas dinner at Laragosta think we should make an effort to get a ladies table together, the more the better....

then we have our ladies do the wk after, exciting stuff!!

Anyway i think ive said everything now!!

Hope to see you all soon!!

Seniors wishing to trial should be registered with a club which is affiliated to the RFUW or be attending a University.

Tour Money

2007-11-09T11:04:00.000Z

Good morning all!

Ok this as you may have guessed is about deposits for tour, I really need to get at least £40 from those of you that haven't paid anything at all by the end of the month. The reason I need it is because I need to book the train tickets on the 7th of December and if I don't have your money I will not be able to book you a ticket and will have to assume that you no longer wish to go on tour with us. I asked if you could pay me £20 a month and so far only 10 people have paid anything at all and by the end of this month will have paid me £60 and be up to date.

Newbie's I'm not including you in this cos you only just found out about it but I will need a deposit from you asap!

I know that club subs are also due by xmas so if you think you can't afford to go on tour then please tell me so I can take you off the list. Those of you that do go Mickey has asked me to find out who wants a ticket to the game, we have 14 so its a first come first served basis, tickets are an extra £50.

Please don't ignore this - I need to know if your going or not, if you are having problems then talk to me and we'll see what we can do.

See most of you on Sunday!

England vs France

2007-10-08T13:00:00.000Z

The game is being shown at the club on Saturday, and Angela is knocking up a chilli for anyone interested.
Therefore, if there are enough people heading down we can don some Mexican clothes to really get into the spirit of it!!!

Kick off is 8pm but the men are playing that day so the bar will be open all day.

Anyone interested????

Halloween Decision!

2007-10-08T10:00:00.000Z

Hi All,

Need some feedback please on availability for the weekend of the 27/28th Oct. We are meant to be playing Beckenham on Sunday 28th and we were arranging a Hallowean Party for after the match. Beckenham have suggested changing the game to the saturday so we can have a big party and piss up on the Saturday night, with people not having to worry about going to work on the Monday.

Before this is even thought about we need to know if you are available to play if the match is changed from the Sunday 28th to the Saturday 27th of October??
Either way you also need to be preparing you Hallowean party outfit too..

As this is kinda a social issue, that is why i am emailing you about it and cos captian always has so much to do, so if you could reply to me with your availability asap, that would be fab, thankyou

Tour 2008

2007-09-18T21:56:00.000Z

Hello all! Tour this year will be to Scotland to watch the Six Nations match from Friday March 7th to Sunday March 9th 2008.

I have worked out the the approximate cost for tour will be £110, that covers accommodation travel and shirts. We are holding 20 beds in a hostel and need to pay the non refundable deposit as soon as poss and its first come serve so if I could get your £20 deposits from you asap that would really help.

I was thinking that if it would make it easier for people to pay then you could pay tour off with £20 a month till Jan with a final payment of £10 in Feb... Would everyone be ok with that?
If you want to talk to me about it then email me or call me.

Thanks, Sam

Well done after Old E's Game..

Back to business, can you let me know asap your availability for next Sunday please and whether you are able to drive some of your team mates down with you.

Beccs Christmas Meal & Party

2007-08-23T09:30:00.000Z

Hello All,

After our chat on Tuesday, we have confirmed that the date of our Christmas Meal/Party will be Saturday 22nd December. Please put in your Diaries. More info to follow, e.g times etc. Food wise we are going to have Curry as that was more popular.

I would appreciate it if you could let me know asap if you can come as I do need to inform the club of a rough number attending. Once i know how many are coming i will let you know the cost. It shouldnt be too much, hence why we are having it at the club and not in a restaurant.

After the meal, we can then continue the night with music, games, fun and frolics.

Any queries, please feel free to email or call me.

Hope to see you all there!

Training!

2007-08-22T10:20:00.000Z

Great turn out at training last night ladies, if we can keep the numbers up like this then it should be a great season ahead of us.

And while we're on a positive note, the club have offered to pay for a coach to come and take some sessions for us throughout the season.

We really want to use this to our advantage and brush up on our skills for on the pitch, therefore it's vital that we work on our fitness and basic skills now so that we can take advantage of him throughout the season. There's not much point in hiring a coach just to make us fit, any of us could run a session to do that!

Mickey and I will get together and plan a few sessions to talk about the basics of the game, who should be where, what would be the best plan of action in which area of the pitch etc. Its also key that you attend these sessions as they're for your benefit.

Are there any rules/moves/etc that you want to specifically go over in this time? Ask any questions especially now, even if they seem ridiculous because chances are if you're thinking it then someone else probably is too!!!!!

Can you all let me know what you think so we can plan ahead.

PS well done Lizzie for survivng your first training session with us, see you on Thursday.

Beccehamian Ladies Rugby Team

2006-12-03T14:52:00.000Z

FRIENDLY MATCH:- Beccehamians Ladies vs. Old Dunstonians Ladies 8th October 2006

Beccehamian ladies got their season underway on Sunday 8th October with a 15-5 win away at Old Dunstonians. Beccehamians suffered a reduction in numbers at the end of last season due to injuries, illness and players moving away. However, recent recruitment has paid off and, despite having to borrow players from Old Dunstonians, they are beginning to look competitive again. This match was an excellent opportunity for learning and development for both teams with the newly-formed Old Dunstonians’ getting their first taste of contested scrums while Beccehamians saw the debut of three brand new players and tried experienced players in new positions. Everyone played with tremendous spirit, with the newcomers learning fast, encouraged by their team-mates.

Captain was founder-member Yvonne (Vonnie) Baxter at hooker, vice captain was fly-half Claire Carver, try-scorer and players’ player of the match was visiting number 8 Kate Goyder, forward of the match was novice flanker Jay Sperry and back of the match was last-season’s top try-scorer, at full-back, Claire Hamon.

Any ladies who would like to have a go at playing rugby can join Beccehamians ladies by calling Vonnie on: 07919 524540
