Our squad for Dubai 7s, leaves for the Middle East on Wednesday night and will play pool games against Rugby Ecosse and Boudiceas RFC on Thursday (4pm and 8pm local time). The final is on Saturday 1st Dec., leaving just enough time to hop back home for the Henley and Bath games. Let's hope they get some sleep on the way!

Congratulations to all those selected to represent the club, we'll know you'll do us proud. It's a great honour to be invited to this tournament - we're the only club side make the grade, which reflects the great success that our 7s squad had last season. Well done also to members of the squad who have put a lot of effort into fundraising. Big thanks to those who supported the fundraising lunch last weekend (either by baking cakes or by turning up and getting sloshed!) and to TJ for organising it. We raised about £1500 on the day and, including donations from sponsors of £800, a total of almost £3000. Not bad in such a short time, and a great example for the Argentina posse!

Our Dubai squad is: Ali Burnett, Oli Davies, Emma Layland, Dawn Mason, Nicky Meston, Fran Matthews, Claire Muir, Fi Pocock, Alice Richardson, Selena Rudge, Amy Turner (Georgie Crabbe was selcted but can't travel). Coaches/manager: Simon Crabb & Karen Findlay. Good luck and have a good trip - we're all rooting for you!
