Fantastic to have Paul Daniels from Staffordshire Society of Rugby Union Referees join us last evening for a post training preseason briefing.

Paul is SRUSR's discipline lead and gave a detailed and insightful presentation on the law updates and what the refs this season will be looking out for.

The Q&A session was really useful giving our players including our newly appointed 1XV captain Tom Coffey the opportunity to gain invaluable feedback ahead of the league season.

They say you don't have a game without a ref and they are not wrong💪

Thanks to Paul for giving up his evening to pass on his experience and expertise and to The Kings Arms, for hosting💚💛🖤

ERUFC is well supported by our local business community, we are so pleased that The Bell Eccleshall are continuing as club sponsors.

Their adoption of "Arthur" as an ERUFC Mascot is a great homage to ERUFC's first Club President Arthur Rees CBE, QPM, DL 💚💛🖤

The "Drink for Arthur" and the creation of Arthur’s Rugby Kitty is another great way The Bell Eccleshall is supporting our club. 💚💛🖤

🏉 EXCITING NEWS FROM THE BELL! 🏉

We’re incredibly proud to announce that The Bell Inn has agreed to extend our sponsorship of Eccleshall Rugby Club for another THREE YEARS! ❤️🏉

We absolutely love supporting the club and being part of the local community, and we’re really looking forward to seeing what the next three years bring!

And with that… we’d like you to meet the newest member of The Bell family — ARTHUR! 🧸🏉🍺

Arthur is our official rugby mascot, and you’ll be seeing this little guy around the pub throughout the season. And, like any good rugby supporter, Arthur is partial to a drink! 😂🍻

If you’d like to buy Arthur a drink, simply pop up to the bar and tell one of the team. We’ll add £2 to your bill, with every penny going into Arthur’s Rugby Kitty for Eccleshall Rugby Club to put towards events they hold with us throughout the season. ❤️

So whether it’s a fundraiser, rugby event or another big day at The Bell, hopefully Arthur’s kitty will help us make it an even better one! 🙌

🍺 AND THERE’S MORE COMING SOON…

Keep your eyes peeled for “Arthur’s Choice” Guest Ale! 👀

Each month, Arthur will be choosing a different guest ale for you all to come down and try. Apparently he’s already taking his new role as Chief Ale Taster very seriously… 😂🍺

So next time you’re in The Bell, make sure you say hello to Arthur — and if you’re feeling generous, buy the little guy a pint! 🧸🍻

Here’s to another three years supporting Eccleshall Rugby Club! 🏉❤️

The Bell Inn x Eccleshall Rugby Club
Supporting local. Supporting rugby. Supporting our community. ❤️
