Sevenoaks District support helps fund coaching
12 May 2009
A big "thank you", on behalf of Sevenoaks Rugby Club, goes to the Sevenoaks District Sports Council for the recent £500 grant we received from them to assist with the cost of coaching courses.
Qualified coaching, particularly for junior players, is a crucial part of the club's offering to the local community, not just from the perspective of improving playing standards but also from a health and safety standpoint.
This grant will help us to put four coaches (David Knox, Allan Johnstone, David Rabbitt and Adam Bowman) through their initial "Level 1" course and one (Mark Reay) through the more advanced "Level 2".
Additional funding such as this is always welcome but especially so in these difficult financial times. I'm sure I speak for the whole club when I say that we are extremely grateful and that we look forward to continued collaboration between the club and the SDSC into the future.
