And thatโs a wrap!
What a wonderful weekend of rugby and celebrations to bring the 25/26 season to a close for Ellon Rugby Club ๐
Thank you to everyone who made the Junior and Youth Awards so special. It was a fantastic way to recognise our individuals and teams, and a great opportunity for coaches to celebrate the development and progress of players across the club ๐ฅณ
A huge thank you to the visiting teams who joined us for the Menโs 10s Festival โ without you it wouldnโt have been possible: Aberdeen Grammar, Deeside Rugby Club, Peterhead Rugby Club, Wanderers, and Dyce Rugby Club. ๐๐ป
A massive thank you to Julie and the team from the Legion! First time in a long while weโve tried an onsite bar and it was brilliant !๐ป
And huge congratulations to the Ellon First XV โ a very welcome return to winning ways, and a brilliant way to end what has been a tough season ๐
A heartfelt thank you also to all the junior festival teams who made the trip to the Meadows on Sunday and played some fantastic rugby. With the festival having been rescheduled, it meant a great deal to us that you were able to join us โญ
A huge thank you must also go to our club sponsors. I recognise these are incredibly challenging times for businesses, and your continued support means we can keep providing everything needed to run the club โ from playing kit to training gear, and everything in between.๐ซถ๐ป
Thank you to allllllll the volunteers, without whom our club simply couldnโt operate โ our Head Coaches, coaches, team managers, junior & youth convenors Emma and Cathy, our club physio Kerry, our club photographer Russ, the kit stall ladies, and the many, many helpers who give their time so generously.๐๐ป
And finally, on a personal note, my biggest thanks goes to the Trust โ a very special group of people who dedicate so much time, energy, and passion to running the club. Thank you โค๏ธ
Already looking forward to the new season.
26/27 โ weโre ready ๐ช๐ป
