LATEST UPDATE: May bank holiday tour to Minehead

8 Jul 2016 by Doug Millen

TOUR UPDATE:
PLEASE CAN YOU LET ME KNOW EITHER WAY IF YOU HAVEN’T ALREADY DONE SO. (Thank you) .

Current YES’ from:

Jacob
Elvis
Finn
Ewan
Charlie w
Thomas
Billy
Rhys
Alex
Nathan Chitty

Had a couple of No’s but haven’t heard from anybody else ?

Obviously ALL lads asked on were keen. It’d be nice if 15-17 lads were to come on tour. It’s a 15 a side festival so we can’t tour with less.

U14 tours are difficult to find and u15 tours even harder. You won’t find a cheaper option either.

I Need to book and pay a team deposit by tomorrow which I can pay for the interim. (1st August ) (Only £15 per family) and from Only £109 per person. Cheaper accommodation does sell fast but if quick can be secured. More luxurious accommodation is easily shareable and as economical .

Yes it is Butlins, BUT …. Ideal for kids, safe and confined. Bars are great for adults !

Very well organised event and full days of rugby. Rooms are literally for sleeping as most the time the lads are out playing rugby or being feral ! Allows adults some serious de-briefing time in the bar. ( no pun intended ) !

Great way to end the season and celebrate our Awards, 28th April – 2nd May, Bank Holiday weekend !!

Alternative tour options are limited as they take place over Easter and we have Burleigh festival at Bognor and fixtures arranged .

Other option would be if we didn’t tour, Quins final game at home is vs Wasps and we could repeat the great outing we had this year, although that can prove nearly as costly ???

I know it’s summer and next May is a long way off but it’ll allow everybody to save over 10 months .

I’ll know the outcome by Sussex RDPP at Bognor tomorrow

Thanks
