World Champions:
I hope you are all enjoying the moment and celebrating the success of winning the Women’s Rugby World Cup! The media attention is fantastic, and the girls bless them have managed to stay awake and do a great job in all the interviews and appearances!
This is now a huge opportunity for you all to ‘ride the wave’ and benefit from the success, by recruiting more players and volunteers in your club. We are already hearing great stories about club secretaries phones not stopping ringing!
I attach an image of the team on the podium, which is available to you to use with local media, on recruitment material, on Twitter and Facebook and your club websites. If you want any help or advice as to what you can do in terms of linking the win to activity at your club, then please just ask. Think about what women & girls are looking for if they are thinking of taking up a new sport – FUN, FITNESS, FRIENDS. Talk about the Core Values – think about the mum who doesn’t know much about rugby, but is thinking about bringing her daughter to your club in September – what does rugby give the girls, that another sport wouldn’t? (image attached).
As you can imagine the demand for the players and the trophy is huge – if you have an idea for an event/activity or would like to request a player appearance, please raise that with Clare Cooper at the RFU Clare Cooper RFU and she will add the request to the list.
If you would like to share videos with your club, these are available through the England Rugby TV channel at www.englandrugby.com/ertv - if you want to ‘embed’ a video in your club website, you can do that through www.youtube.com (search for Women’s Rugby World Cup or England Rugby Women) choose the video, then ‘share’ and ‘embed’.
Thank you for your support, the girls are totally overwhelmed and hugely proud.
Keep in touch with what you have going on and coming up!
