Redditch FOLLOW US ONLINE TWITTER.COM/RUGBYCLUBMAG Garry Mills from club sponsor Mill Tackle Ltd recently spoke to Rugby Club Magazine about his positive association with Redditch RFC. He told us, “My brother Roy played hooker for Redditch and was captain of both the 1st and 3rd team squad when he dragged me along in 1983 as a fresh 21 year old. My son James has followed in his dads footsteps as the first XVs scrum half, having come through the clubs junior ranks and my five year old grandson Oscar is definitely destined to be a rugby player too. One of the highlights of my life has to be the wonderful experience of playing touch rugby at Twickenham last year! Now 35 years later I still play scrum half whilst coaching our ladies touch rugby side, `The Queenfishers’. We are a very family oriented club and I suppose my own family is an example of that. My wife Judith and daughter Sarah play for the Queenfishers, which is our six a side touch rugby O2 setup. Redditch RFC is a bloody good club with excellent links with our Cricket ,Hockey and squash teams and myself and my family are privileged to be part of it all and to witness a wonderful club celebrating 50 years of Rugby!” 194 x 135 Advert 2015_Layout 1 10/04/2015 10:59 Page 1 An Independent Family Owned Funeral Directors THOMAS BROTHERS e only family owned funeral homes in Redditch, Wythall & Alvechurch.
