Sunday 21 December - Training and Minis Xmas Party

Hi Everyone

Just to confirm there will be training this Sunday at Hove; there is NO rugby on Sunday 28 December and we will begin the new year with training at Hove on Sunday 4 January. The Midhurst and East Grinstead matches are being re-scheduled and I will give you more news of those in the New Year.

In the meantime please find below a message from the mini's Chairman re the Christmas Party - please note the change in time!

The mini's Christmas party will be held this Sunday 16:30 - 18:30 at the club house and is free. For those of you new to the club this is one of the most important fixtures of the season.

For the children we offer a full Christmas Creche facility hosted by Father Christmas himself along with a disco, various ridiculous games and more sweets than you can shake a stick at. Undoubtedly, this is a prime opportunity to get our children exhausted and thoroughly into the festive swing. It has always been a resounding success and we have always managed to contain the excitement......just. Fancy dress is always highly amusing and we leave this down to your discretion.....!!

For the parents we offer the other side of the club where you are obliged to frequent our well stocked bar and make merry. This is a great opportunity to spend some time with the other parents away from the cold touchlines that have been haunting us so far this season. Again, you can't go wrong - just turn up, drop your child into the disco and order a festive round what could be a better way to see in Christmas??

All we need from you, parents, is to be your own child's Father Christmas. What does this mean? Well.....we need you to bring a small present, max. £5.00, to give to your child via the real Father Christmas. This is absolutely the best way forward and means your child will receive something that they want rather than something plastic we've guessed at. We'll run all the entertainment but you bring a small gift. The distribution of the gifts will be done by age group so on arrival please hand in to one of Santa's helpers. Should you forget, we will have bought in some spares.....

All that remains is to see you there enjoying Christmas and supporting your club.

See everyone on Sunday and for those who won't be there MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR from all the Coaches.
