Wesley Rugby Football Club

Well it's happened. Finally. After years of cheap talk and idle chatter, Wesley Rugby Football Club is at last up and running. A constitution has been drafted and officers will be elected at the club's first AGM, scheduled to take place in late November.

If you'd like to come along, or if you'd like to get involved, either on the field or off, then please get in touch with Chris Bean (through the College) or else email me at commanderATclearDOTnetDOTnz.

The Club's constitution makes for fairly dull reading - no offence constitutional genuis Jeff Johansson! - but here's a few of the club's "objects" so you know what we're about (note the emphasis on other sports besides rugby):

(a) to promote the furtherance of sport in Counties-Manukau, New Zealand and the Pacific Islands;
(b) to provide a pathway for Maori and Pasifika people to further their sporting careers;
(c) to promote the game of rugby union and other sports as may be affiliated to the Club;
(d) to build and maintain a positive working relationship with both Wesley College and the Wesley College Old Students Association.

So when's this club getting off the ground? Well, check out the next post!
