RFUW aim stamp out National Cup "ringers"

Interesting email today from RFUW about the National Cup. Probably needs no comment from me...

Hi Guys

I am dropping you an email to clarify the use of players in the Cup Competition, as currently there are various rumours circulating about clubs hoping to recruit players from Regional Trials for their Cup Matches.

Firstly a player can only play for one club in any competition, so even if a player transfers to your club they are cup tied and cannot play.

At the start of the cup we did allow clubs to cluster and join forces so the girls got to play rugby, i have a full list of which clubs have joined forces to fulfil their fixtures.

I also have a list of players that have so far represented your club in this competition, you are allowed to bring in players that are registered to your individual club for the next round who did not play in the earlier fixture but if you
wish to bring in any player from outside your club then either myself or Kean need to be consulted on the reasons why and we will decide if that player can be added to your squad.

If you need any further information, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Many Thanks

Keeley
