East Dorset
RUGBY FOOTBALL CLUB
The club changed its name from “Old Portcastrians” in the early 2000’s
in a bid to attract new players and to re-invent itself. Old Portcastrians
had begun in 1966. I first joined the club in 1986 and over the years I
have been captain, Head Coach and now progressed to Chairman.
The most challenging part of my role
is to make sure the club committee and
members all play active parts in keeping
the club happy, tidy, functioning and
afloat. The most rewarding part is seeing
our senior side play on a Saturday and
44 Issue 75
the youth and mini train and play on a
Sunday.
The mood of the club is excellent at
the moment. The off season went well
with new players coming in – they have
shown to be keen and add a good buzz
to the squad. This season we are in
Dorset & Wilts South 2 and our aim is
to finish in the top half and build a team
equipped for promotion in a couple of
years.
