We are a grass roots Junior Rugby Club based in Doncaster who have children from 5 to 17 in a variety of teams.

We know that sport for families and children can often have barriers for people to engage with and one of the main ones seems to be cost.

This has become even more apparent in recent years with the impact of Covid and the rise in all of our living costs.

Therefore as a junior section our committee made the decision to make "rugby for juniors free for all" this means no annual membership fee's, no weekly subs and that children are issued free playing kit.

The feedback has been so positive and we have seen numbers start to increase which is fabulous and means that more young people not only get more active but will move forward in there futures with rugby's core values of Teamwork, Respect, Enjoyment, Discipline and Sportsmanship.

For us to continue to do this we need to fundraise and do this by challenging ourselves both physically and mentally.

The junior section will therefore be completing a run from Doncaster to Twickenham on Saturday 5th March 2022 10am to 4pm. Each junior member will on average run a distance of 4 miles to ensure we hit the target and we will be leaving on the Trans Pennine Track from the rugby club, past Cusworth crossroads up to the 0.5 mile point and then return.

Anyone who wants to cheer them on feel free to come down during the day and we will celebrate our success in the club afterwards.

Any amount will be much appreciated and will help our future generations to access this amazing sport and have a positive impact on growing their futures.
