Essex RFU – Volunteer Recognition Program.
” Over the last season I have been amazed by the way rugby volunteers have bounced back, after a challenging couple of years, to support the return of rugby. They are the most important asset that rugby has, and we are appreciative of every volunteer who makes our sport happen day in, day out”’.
Jeff Blackett, RFU Past President.
Without Volunteers, giving their time to support the game whether at a Club or supporting the CB, then the game we love would not survive therefore we are proud to recognise our dedicated and selfless volunteers who are essential to the success and sustainability of rugby across the County.
Whether coaches, referees, club officers, CB officers, parents or guardians, your dedication, time, and willingness to commit, deserve the highest accolades, as such Essex RFU want to ensure recognition for all you give.
