Safety notices
We realise that not all parents will want to help or watch from the sidelines when the weather gets colder and/or wetter and we know that the car park at Leos is not well lit and is busy.
At Leos, parents who aren’t helping with the session or watching from the sidelines ***MUST*** fill in a form with their mobile phone number and car registration and car location so that we can contact them and/or find them if there is an incident involving their child or their child wants to leave the rugby pitch before the end of the session. The form will be under the covered area in front of the clubhouse.
The meeting points will continue to be in front of the clubhouse.
Warning – NO WAGGLING – there was an incident at Leos a few months ago when one child was waggling a post and the top of the post hit another child in the face. Let’s be safe this week – before you arrive, please tell your child/ren that they mustn’t touch any of the posts at any time.
This week – 67 attending – 2 groups at 4:45, 3 groups at 5:30, 1 group at 6:00, 1 groups at 6:15 all at/from Leos.
