brixham FOLLOW US ONLINE TWITTER.COM/RUGBYCLUBMAG will have been well entertained and should encourage more of the local community to get behind the club in the future. This in turn has the potential to provide them with a valuable source of additional revenue which is particularly important in the current financial climate. Brixham is not a club to focus solely upon their senior section however and they also have a number of youth sides in place. These team’s look to provide youngsters from the local area with an opportunity to play the game in a safe and enjoyable environment whilst helping them to reach their full potential. It is important for any club to be able to produce their own talent if they are to be successful over a sustained period of time and this is an area they appear to have covered. It will certainly be exciting to see how their juniors can progress in the coming years. In order to help these players to make the sometimes difficult transition into the senior game Brixham also has additional sides running. This allows them to give out experience of adult level rugby even if players are not considered ready for first team action which can be an important step in the development process. Another benefit of having extra teams is that it allows the first team to benefit from far greater strength in depth. If they are ever left short on numbers through injury or work commitments they have the option of calling players up with a limited amount of disruption. There is much to admire about the superb set up that Brixham has in place both on and off the field. Hopefully they will be able to continue in the same manner for many years to come and Rugby Club Magazine wishes them the best of luck. Please talk to us or pop in for more details. WHICH?
