Members are being invited to help shape the next chapter of their club.

Newtown Rugby Club will host a special club evening on Thursday, September 24, at 6pm to gather input on its future direction and involve members in key decisions.

The event will take place at the club and will give members the opportunity to meet committee members and volunteers, learn about how the club is run, and discuss volunteering opportunities.

Central to the evening will be the club’s draft five-year development and improvement plan for 2026-2031.

The plan covers a wide range of areas including rugby development, volunteering, finances, facilities, governance, community involvement, inclusion, and communication.

Newtown RFC has emphasised that the document is a draft and is being shared with members in advance to allow time for review and reflection.

Members are encouraged to read the plan before the meeting and come prepared to share their thoughts, suggestions, and questions.

The club is also looking to expand its team of volunteers.

A variety of roles are available for those willing to contribute, and the club is keen to stress that volunteering does not have to mean a large, ongoing commitment.

Supporters can help in different ways depending on their time, skills, and experience.

The evening will also include an introduction to the club’s operations, with committee members and key volunteers on hand to explain their roles and responsibilities.

The club believes that its future will be shaped by the collective efforts of players, coaches, parents, supporters, volunteers, and members.

Members from all sections of the club are encouraged to attend the meeting, regardless of how long they have been involved.

The event is part of the club’s vision under the banner One Club. Our Town. Our Future.
