Introducing... our new fixtures secretary!

As you know, for the past two seasons the clubs main junior fixtures secretary has done our fixtures as well.

There were some advantages to this. It meant that the wider club took some notice of what we do, and also he knows when our ground is free for home fixtures. But he obviously does not really know the teams we are playing, nor the waking nightmare that is the RFUW's ever moving calendar.

I was therefore delighted when - in response to the discussion document sent round this afternoon (copies available on request if you didn't get one) - one of your number has replied and asked if there is anything she could do to help. So I suggested fixtures - and she has said yes. So (on the grounds that you never say no to a volunteer) I've given her the job.

This is obviously a very important job, not to mention an incredibly annoying and frustrating one, so any help you can give to the brave volunteer would I'm sure be appreciated. Its not that fixtures secretary is difficult as such - its just that its like doing a jigsaw on the living room carpet while your mother is hoovering, the dog has eaten the picture, half the pieces are missing, and your kid brother keeping colouring in what is left....

Anyway - step forward and take a bow - our new fixtures secretary ...
