Woolston Rovers U11 Golds will be completing a 3k Santa Dash on Sunday 16 December 2018. Starting at 10am from our clubhouse Monks Sports then around Woolston Park back to Monks.

This is to raise money for Rach Thompson, who is the amazing mum to one of our fantastic players (Samuel) and our number one fan (Eve).

Hopefully any funds raised will help support Rach through a difficult period and to make some lasting memories with her children.

Rach has been battling with Ovarian cancer since December 2015 - Rach has undergone 3 years of intense chemotherapy and immunotherapy with initially fantastic results receiving a complete response to treatment.

In March 2017 Rach received the devastating news that her cancer had returned and began another round of chemotherapy followed by immunotherapy.

Rach and her family have been given the devastating news that she now has secondary cancerous tumours so is currently undergoing treatment.

True to Rach’s bossy determined style she will continue to fight and ensure normality for her children as much as she can. Currently Rach is unable to drive or work which as you can imagine is a having a massive impact on her financially as well as her independence with her children.

Prior to her diagnosis Rach was a keen fundraiser particularly for cancer charities and ‘go fund me’ as this has always been close to her heart following the passing of her amazing mum from cancer.

Rach truly is an inspirational warrior someone who is more than a rugby mum, she is a close friend of us all at Woolston Rovers U11 Golds and we'll forever support her, her children and family.
