Hope everyone is having a great summer. Time flies and the new season is almost upon us; in fact the senior men’s squad play their first preseason friendly next Saturday (16th) at Bushy Park.

This season we have some changes, with some familiar faces taking on leadership roles in the club. Pete Church will be taking over as Youth Chair from Sam Seward who has now moved abroad with his work. Keith Bush will take up the role of Junior Chair after Barry Williams has stepped aside after a number of sterling years in the role and it’s great to have Chris Dickinson continuing as Minis Chair for another season. On the board, James Olsen is taking over from Pat Patrick as Honorary Secretary, - Pat having served an amazing 24 years in that job. Give them all as much support as possible, they are all volunteers and give up their free time to keep our great club moving forward.

We are into August so the 25/26 subs products are now available for purchase and can be found via the following link,

Please action these as soon as you can. Subscriptions are the clubs main source of income and allow us to cover our costs and invest where needed.

Looking forward to another great season of Antlers rugby with lots of social events along the way.

Teddington RFC Chair.
