Clubs around the country will be taking part in a weekend which aims to bring members, volunteers and local businesses from the community together for a weekend of DIY to help make rugby clubs stronger businesses by renovating their facilities in time for the forthcoming Rugby World Cup.

We have a list of projects we'd love to tackle over the weekend. If you could spare a couple of hours to come along and help we'd love to see you there. The bar will be open and we'll also fire up the BBQ. Bring the kids along too, there is always something they can join in with, even if it's just a run around on the pitch.

Likewise, if you know of any local businesses or handymen who might be willing to donate their time or some DIY products please encourage them to get in touch. We have some specific projects in mind that would really benefit from a qualified plumber if any are available. Donna Hogan is coordinating the weekend and you can contact her on secretary@tringrugby.com

Please get involved in any way you can and encourage others to help out too.
