Winnington Park RFC

The U16 girls rugby squad at Winnington Park RFC have invited the CRY charity down to Burrows Hill and want to celebrate, as well as raise funds for both CRY and the Girls sections, with our Fun Family Festival
.
CRY – Cardiac Risk in the Young - is a charity dedicated to preventing young sudden cardiac deaths, through research, awareness, screening and support for affected families. Over the weekend of 20/21 May 2023 CRY will be joining us to carry out 200 screenings for 14yr to 35yrs as they can across the two days. (Details of how to sign up for a screening will be released in the new year)


The U16 girls felt this such a worthy cause that they are building a Family Festival around it, welcoming families old and new to the Club, to support CRY in their endeavours.


Saturday 20th May 2023 will see the club transformed into a festival of family events with stalls, activities, games, competitions – and of course a little rugby!


To fully capitalise on the weekend and raise as much as possible for both CRY, we will be holding a raffle with some fabulous prizes; please let us know if you are able to help with this, or if you have access to match funding which you would be prepared to use for us.


All age groups are invited to have their own stall at the event and we are looking for one volunteer (could be parent or coach) per group to represent their section as we organise the event. Each team is encouraged to have a stall of their own and split the profit between Cry and their own team. Come along to the meeting to find out more details.


Womens and girls rugby is very much an upcoming sport, gaining more momentum all of the time and this is an opportunity to support this growth as well as helping CRY continue to carry out their life saving work.
