Sunday CANCELLED... but this time its the snow
Hi againWe have heard from the club that all training is cancelled for tomorrow. I guess we all know why! Sometime soon the weather must change and we'll get a prolonged run of playing. There is no training on 27th so we will train again at Hove on Sunday 3rd January 2010.
Well, as we won't see you I'd like to wish you all a Merry Xmas from me, Fiona, John, Francois, Andy and Steph. Remember to keep the boys on a strict diet over Christmas... of chocolate and mince pies... with a rigorous exercise routine... taking your empties to the recycling bin should do.
Have a COOL YULE.
Cheers

RUGBY CANCELLED - Sun 6th Dec

I’m afraid that we have to cancel rugby again today. I’m really sorry, especially as it is so long since we played, but the weather is set against us at the moment.
Keep your fingers crossed for next week!

Your help requested. Please be generous
Hi,
I am growing a moustache this year for Movember.
I have decided to put down my razor for one month (November) and help raise awareness and funds for men’s health – specifically prostate cancer.
What many people don’t appreciate is that one man dies every hour of prostate cancer in the UK, more than 35,000 men will be diagnosed this year and that prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men in the UK.
Facts like these have convinced me I should get involved and I am hoping that you will support me. To donate to my Mo, you can either: • Click this link http://uk.movember.com/donate/your-details/member_id/289260/
and donate online using your credit card, debit card or PayPal account •
Write a cheque payable to ‘The Prostate Cancer Charity - Movember’, referencing my Registration Number 289260 and mailing it to: Movember - The Prostate Cancer Charity, First Floor, Cambridge House, Cambridge Grove, London, W6 0LE.
Movember is now in its third year here in the UK and, to date, has achieved some pretty amazing results by working alongside The Prostate Cancer Charity.
Check out further details at: http://uk.movemberfoundation.com/research-and-programs.
If you are interested in following the progress of my Mo, click here http://uk.movember.com/mospace/289260/. Also, http://uk.movember.com/ has heaps of useful information.
Thank you

If you have a gmail (googlemail) account you can copy your photos online with a single click and either share them to one person on a private basis, a group of people or everyone in the world. It makes backing up your photos childs play. You can also download them onto another computer.

Hove Under 12s and BBQ 30 August
Hi everyone
Hope you all had a good summer (although I'm still waiting for the BBQ summer we were promised). We are now Hove Under 12s, last year in the minis, and thought I'd let you know what was happening (well, at least for the first couple of weeks!).
The 2009-10 Season Starts on Sunday 6th September and we will be on Pitch 3 at the kit store room end, http://www.multimap.com/s/jrDxex38. The first four weeks of the season will be training from 10.00-12.00 as usual.
Please note that Registration will be on Sunday 6th and Sunday 13th September. All existing members are being sent a renewal form next week - please bring this form and cash or cheque with you. Details of membership fees can be found on the website: http://www.hoverfc.com/index.php?menu=Club&submenu=Membership&ql=22.
The club is holding its pre-season BBQ at the clubhouse on 30th August, 2009. ALL club members and familes are welcome. Deano is providing the food, and there will be a live band during the afternoon. There will also be a bouncy castle for the littl 'uns. The event starts at 1pm.
So, if I don't see you this Sunday, I'll see you on 6th September

Sunday 3rd May
Hi everyone,
Sunday 3rd May is proving to be EXTREMELY busy with lots of other things going on apart from the Minis Awards Day.
As you know a lot of our squad will be missing through various activities, so we would like to hold a separate U11 awards day so that everyone can be present and give us a chance to vote for player of the year etc.
There is a Tag match for coaches/parents (parents you have been warned please bring suitable footwear!) between the age groups that should be taking place around 10.30 on the U10/U12 pitches:
Pool A: U6/U7, The Dogs, U11s
Pool B: The Rhinosaurs, U9s, U12s
There is a £1 per person match fee - and small people will be wandering around with collection buckets. This should be completed by 11.30 - so there will be a chance for kids to have a game of bulldog or similar before the Chinook Helicopter lands about 11.45 - then there will be club presentations at the front of the clubhouse by the Wing Commander to coaches etc.
There will also be a bouncy castle and hopefully a BBQ and of course the bar will be open. They are looking for volunteers to help with the BBQ - anyone willing please let me know asap.
Just to let you know there are also the following events happening:
10.30 - Hove U13 game Pitch 2 which needs to be finished by 11.45 otherwise the helicopter will land on them!
11.00 - Colts County Final - Pitch 1
2.00pm - Women's Final - Pitch 1
2.30p - Hove park old boys game - Pitch 2
not to mention a home cricket match!
Final bit of advice from the club is to try not to drive down as parking will be horrific - you have been warned!

Sunday 3rd May - Minis Fun Day
Hi everyone
First of all well done to everyone who went to Edenbridge - the A's were the runners up in the Plate Competition (our first bit of silver!) and although the Bs did not progress into a final they played with a lot of commitment and against some very strong opposition - so well done to all and well done to all the parents for their stamina! Sitting in the sun all day is hard work!
This Sunday, 3rd May, is the Minis Fun Day at Hove. We are expecting a Chinook Helicopter, the pilot is an ex-Hove player, and it will arrive at 12pm and depart at 2pm. There may also be a tag game between coaches/parents of all age groups! So for those who are available please turn up for some gentle exercise and fun at the normal time.
In the meantime though it appears that many of our players won't be available on Sunday as it is the start of the cricket and athletics season. At the moment I know of the following who won't be available.
Freddie Nehls, Freddie Garth, Freddie Packham, George Oliver, George Turner, George Karous, Max Karous, James Hadfield, Luke Griffiths, Mikey Howell, Lawrence Wright, Sam Pfeiffer, Steph Pfeiffer, Zac Downey
If there's anyone else who knows they are not around next Sunday please can you let me know as soon as possible as this will affect when we have the U11s awards day.
Feel free to email fiona.nehls@btinternet.com or text me on 07929 325827.
I also wanted to let you know that John Wright, Lawrence's dad, has very kindly uploaded some photos from recent tournaments onto a Picasa web page http://picasaweb.google.com/HoveRFC1997 . The Wasps group photo from this year and 2008 are also on this page.
Catch up with all soon

Sunday 22 February - at Home
First of all - well done to the As at last Sunday's H Trophy and thank you to everyone who turned out to support them.
They started off with a great win over Heathfield (the first time we’ve beaten them for some time). Unfortunately we then lost to Haywards Heath in a tight game and although we beat Hastings convincingly (6 tries to 0) we lost our last game to Horsham by 1 try.
Tries were scored by Freddie Packham (2); James Hadfield (3); George Oliver and Zac Downey.
The group winners were Haywards Heath – the result dependent on their final game against Heathfield. Hove came a creditable 3rd in the group.
This week we will be at home and expect Crawley and possibly Shoreham (TBC) to visit.
I know quite a few will not be available on Sunday - if you have not already let me know, please advise of your availability.
Thanks and see you Sunday

Sunday 22 March - Wasps vs Bristol
We are organising another Wasps day like the one last year (and the year before that!)!!
Sunday 22nd March, Wasps vs Bristol in the Guinness Premiership.
Then, coach to the ground where we watch the game against Bristol from the stand, before heading back to Hove after the match - arriving back approx 7.15pm.
All those that have attended previously have agreed that these Match Day coaching sessions provide a fantastic day for both kids and adults alike.
We need to give numbers to Wasps 6 weeks prior - so need to know by next week - and, preferably, by this Sunday.
Prices are as follows;
£20 per participant child - including training and ticket and a Certificate and London Wasps Gift (this year I believe it will be the 08/09 Beanie Hat - but don't hold me to that!)
£20 per adult.
£10 per concession (OAP, Students & U18's).
Note - the prices for kids have not gone up for the last 2 years and the adult price has only gone up by £1 - excellent value for money!
I will need a deposit of £10 per child/adult and £5 per concession.
In addition to the participating child, I need to know how many adult tickets you require, and how many concessions, together with how many seats on the coach you require. If you intend to drive instead, can you confirm this too.
PLEASE EMAIL ME YOUR REQUIREMENTS ASAP - I WILL OF COURSE ALSO HAVE MY CLIP BOARD WITH ME ON SUNDAY!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR - 4 & 10 January 2009
Happy New Year Everyone!
Just a gentle reminder that there is training at Hove this Sunday 4th January.
In addition we have been asked by Worthing RFC to provide a curtain raiser on Saturday 10th January for their first team who are playing London Scottish at Worthing, It would be on the first team pitch prior to the main game. It would be one 7 min each way game and we would then have the opportunity of forming a tunnel for the first team to run through. Worthing would then provide some light refreshments and we would then be free to go or watch the main match. This would all take place at around 1.30p.m, ie. we would need to be there by approx 1pm for warm up etc.
Please can everyone let me know, if they have not already done so, if they are available for both Sunday 4 and Saturday 10th January.
Many thanks
