Farewell to Randy... again!
We've been here before. Just over a year ago we thought we were saying goodbye to our flying wing, but she came back and has even played in majority of our games this year. However this time its not the army but age that has caught up with her - and there is no weekend's leave from that!
What more is there to add to the earlier tribute, beyond the fact that Randy returned to us this season quite staggeringly (embarrassingly for everyone else!) fit, and - incredibly - at least a yard or two faster? As a result she's picked up a whole heap of tries this season, and had a very good sevens season to round things off.
What is more her future rugby career seems assured as by her return Randy was already a fixture in her corps team - and comfortably the youngest player as well.
In fact we learn that the fastest feet in Letchworth are off to Germany for three or four years, so may see very little of her. Remember to keep in touch, Randy.
And for our German readers (and there are a few!) it may be worth noting that one of the best wings we've ever produced may be at a British Army camp near you soon... and looking for a game!
