The off-season was absolutely brilliant as there
are so many positives that will help take the
club forward, for example:
• A new drainage system installed under the main
pitch at a cost of almost £80k, mostly funded by Sport
England, that will enable possibly 10 times the number
of games to be played.
• At long last a newly resurfaced car-park along
with clearance of obstructions funded by generous
members donations.
• A sponsorship drive has proven to be very successful.
• New signage.
• Very successful appointments of a new Membership
Secretary and a Social Media Secretary.
• Installation of a new till system which interfaces
with the RFU’s Game Management System’s (GMS)
Direct Debit capability and which has enabled us
to provide selective discounts to members on their
purchases at the bar
• Reclamation of land enabling a third pitch to be
installed which has hosted games while the main pitch
has been out of commission due to the aforementioned
drainage project
• There has been a full programme of Club (Ascot
Ladies’ Day Experience, President’s Ball, Cheltenham
Racing Day) and Private (Weddings, Birthday
Parties, Christenings, Play-Schemes and Conference)
functions that are helping to boost funding for our
progressive plans.
