Wisbech Town Council approves support for local club RUFC

Posted: Wed, 08 Jul 2020 13:25 by Tina

After a second vandalism attack in as many months, a local rugby club, the WRFC, has been awarded a grant of £320 to assist in making good the necessary repairs to damaged posts. The Club had spent money on quick drying cement, metal fixings, the hire of a welder, and acetylene kits which made a major dent in the Club's finances.

Councillor Peter Human heard of the damage and approached the Club Secretary inviting him to submit an application for financial support, which was approved under powers delegated to the Town Clerk (exercised following consultation with relevant councillors) on 6 July. More »

Club Secretary, Dave Dobson said, "The Club is grateful for the concern shown and support offered by Wisbech Town Council." » Less

Lisa Kennedy, founder and fully qualified tennis coach has organized a series of tennis lessons to be held in Wisbech Park tennis courts, commencing Thursday 16 July for five weeks.

Each child that is signed up to the tennis lessons will receive their very own racket to encourage them to continue to learn the sport.
