From Una Deed: WMRFC's first U7 girls' team took part in the development tournament at Mitcham on 22 March and held their own very well against the boys!!

Both teams (one girls, one boys) had a great day at Mitcham today and made lots of progress!

On Saturday [22 March], eight of our U17s represented the club in a Baa Baas team to play Old Ruts in a Memorial game for Kyle McInerney, writes Philip Rea. Kyle sadly passed away last May.

This was a fantastic game of rugby played in great spirit, style and at a very fast pace. It was a most fitting tribute. It finished Old Ruts 17 Baa Baas 10. Well done to all the Wimbledon lads who gave up their Saturday to participate; George Price, Leon Bird, Tom Newsome, Mo Khan, Sam McKibben, Ivan Rea, Jack Mellinger, & Eamon Broderick.

Minis are in their usual spots.

Pitch Plan

The minis had their A festival on Sunday; was a great day of rugby, well-organised by the U12s under Anthony Hulton. U7 and U9 won their own festival, too! Any more results?

Youth teams did fantastically, too. The U16s won their home game away to Sutton & Epsom – 27-17 and the U17s won at home to Reeds – 25-15.

Saturday 21st March
A massive day for the club with a crucial fixture for the senior 1st XV. Win against Sutton & Epsom and they may well be promoted this season to the national leagues. IF YOU CAN COME DOWN AND SUPPORT THE LADS, PLEASE DO! A big home support could well make the difference.

The club's putting on fun for all the family, BBQ, bar etc. KO is 2.30pm.

Sunday 29th March
Please come and support the U17s at home to Camberley 11am KO. It’s the last league game of the season and we are neck and neck on points. Whoever wins are Champions of Division 2.
