Matt Spour, pro photographer and minis dad and coach, took photos of the Word Cup with all of our age groups when it visited the club earlier in the month.

You can buy small prints, large prints, keyrings and t-shirts. Go fill your boots. He's kept the costs as low as he can so don't miss out! Also, any monies raised will go towards the club's development (changing rooms etc).

There's even a pic of the club's coaches partaking in frankly disturbing lunges.

Remember: all the World Cup games are being shown at the clubhouse. No need to be lonesome on your sofa!

Please let's get any outstanding subs in this Sunday. There is a subs desk in full operation to make paying your subs as easy as possible.

We made this film to mark our big birthday. Those of you at the ball will have seen this in all its glory.

The building work on the new changing rooms has started so parking might be more of a challenge. If parking off-site please park respectfully of our neighbours' entrances and verges.

Wimbledon Under 15s are getting into World Cup spirit by playing the Italian team Pordenone (http://www.rugbypordenone.it/) at 11am. Here's what happened in May at the away fixture...

Wimbledon U18s are playing Richmond FC at 11am, too.

The clubhouse will be open for all the World Cup games.

Last Sunday we were proud to host the World Cup trophy at the club. Great that Esher RFC could join us for training and see the cup too.

Under 6s look happy to be with the cup

As do the Under 11s

Slight change to the allocation last season. Please park sensibly. Most importantly, let's have a brilliant season. Training starts 10am sharp

STOP PRESS: There's a rumour that there are some World Cup-based goody bags for the first 100 people to pay their subs!

Here's to a fantastic season.

We have 500 guests attending this ball and this really is set to be the biggest and most prestigious event ever to be held by Wimbledon RFC. This will be far more than the average club party!

The evening will take place in a luxury marquee in the grounds of the Club and will consist of a fizz reception, a yummy three course meal, 5 bottles of wine and 10 bottles of beer on the table, a question and answer session hosted by vice president, David Kurk, with Nick Easter, Nick Evans and world cup winning ladies players, Becky Essex and LaToya Mason.

There will be a luxury auction taking place on the night and a number of other surprises commemorating our history. There will be a live band helping us to party the night away.
