BURTON RFC GAIN RFU WHOLE CLUB SEAL OF APPROVAL
BURTON RFC will be presented with their RFU Whole Club Seal of Approval at England’s RBS 6 Nations Championship match against Scotland at Twickenham Stadium on Sunday March 13.
Burton will be recognised for attaining the high standards required for Whole Club Seal of Approval status.
Burton will be represented by their president John Lowe at the pitchside presentation ceremony.
The RFU Seal of Approval accreditation recognises the effort and achievement of volunteers in reaching the standard required in the development of rugby across the whole club, and to plan for the long term sustainability of the club and rugby union.
The Whole Club Seal of Approval accreditation was introduced in 2009 as a method of ensuring high quality provision of rugby in clubs. It builds on the established procedures of Mini and Youth Seal of Approval.
Clubs are assessed by the RFU and must demonstrate evidence of good practice in areas such as club management, player development and recruitment, child protection, sports equity, coaching, refereeing and volunteering.
STOKE on TRENT RFC GAIN RFU WHOLE CLUB SEAL OF APPROVAL
Stoke have become the first club in the West Midlands region to achieve Rugby Football Union Whole Club Seal of Approval status.
Congratulations to the Stoke committee who have worked hard over the last six months to meet the stringent criteria required for the Whole Club Seal of Approval and are among the first 20 clubs in the country to achieve the award.
The Whole Club Seal of Approval award recognises the effort and achievement of volunteers in achieving the standards needed in developing and sustaining rugby union in their clubs.
Stoke, who celebrated their 125th anniversary last season, were also the first club in the country to achieve Mini & Youth Seal of Approval, which recognised the dedication and efforts of a group of individuals in getting youngsters playing rugby in a safe, effective and child-friendly environment.
