  10. Youth, Midi and Mini Rugby Organisation The Junior Rugby section of the club has been in existence since its inauguration in 2003. It is expected that the numbers will increase considerably in another two years when we expect to have an additional two year groups at U-16 and U-17 years. Our projected figures are in excess of 220 young players involved in Rugby at Layham Road by 2015. There is a need to recruit more volunteers to undertake the coaching and management of these new groups.

  11. Hadleigh RFC and the Future ? • As demand for rugby at all levelswithin the community keeps growing it is critical that we are able to continue to provide adequate facilities and space for playing and non playing activities. • Although we have been able to secure the use the football pitch (next to car park) on Sunday mornings, training and playing space is still limited and at times not sufficient for the number of teams that wish to play/train. • Parking is also a recurring headache although a recent arrangement with HUFC to use their car park for overflow parking has provided some relief on busy junior match days. • The rapid growth in our youth section is now posing some real problems in terms of our ability to adequately host opposition teams and their supporters. A minimum of two more changing rooms plus additional showers are now urgently required. • We would like to build a more collaborative relationship with the town council in order to help us meet these challenges.
