"He Kicked That Ball Like It Were Three Pounds O’ Haggis."

Everyone is immensely saddened to learn of the death this week of the man who to millions worldwide was simply “The Voice of Rugby.” Hawick’s favorite son, Bill McLaren, passed away peacefully at the local hospital on Tuesday 19th January. He was 86.

He entertained generations of viewers with his unique and distinctive style and turn of phrase for over 40 years before his final commentary in 2002.

The thoughts of everyone involved in rugby in Moray go out to Bill's family at this difficult time.

Fair Play Hopeman

On the back of Scotland’s famous defeat of Australia on the 26th of November 2009 Moray saw the inaugural Kinloss Kestrels Primary Schools Festival. With the help of Moray’s active schools team and Rugby development officer James Sloggie, eight teams from six schools took part in this new annual event.

Kinloss, Alves, Pilmuir, Andersons, Burghead and Hopeman primary schools all received block’s of coaching during the build up to the festival. These sessions were run during school time by the local development officer and coaches from Kinloss rugby club.

Sloggie commented “our focus is to get as many people experiencing, playing and enjoying rugby within the schools and the clubs in Moray”.

The Kinloss event was played on a fair play system where each team, made up of 5 boys and 5 girls, receives points for team work, good conduct and sportsmanship. This ensures all teams have an equal chance of winning.

In very wet conditions everyone involved showed great individual and team skills. The level of sportsmanship throughout the day also helped to showcase rugby in a hugely positive light.

Active Schools Coordinator Kevin Collins added "Through this event we have formed a number of new links between Kinloss Kestrels and the Primary Schools in the surrounding area. We hope that these links will be strengthened further in the coming years to ensure a bright future for schools rugby and a steady stream of new players for the Kestrels."

At the end of the event the top 3 teams were awarded gifts from Scottish Rugby with overall winners Hopman being awarded the fair play trophy from Kinloss Kestrels coach James Henderson.

Sloggie added “We are positive that this will have a good impact on rugby in Moray but specifically at Kinloss Kestrels – there is some real talent out there”

School Rugby Enjoys Astroturf

Last night (Monday 16th November) saw rugby on the Milnes high astroturf for the first time since its completion.
Boys, girls and some brave parents from Milnes Primary, Gordonstoun's Aberlour House and Mosstodloch Primary all braved the wet, cold and windy November evening to play games of tag rugby at the high school facility.

The aim of the evening was to give all the players a run out and start to build links between the schools that currently run junior rugby teams.

All of the players played 4 games of touch rugby lasting 12 minutes each. All displaying some excellent individual and team skills In which were all close fought games many of them ending in draws.
We are hoping to run another event like this before the end of the school term - details will be posted as soon as they are confirmed.

Well done to everyone who braved the weather and played some great rugby last night.

Budding Stars Impress In Buckie

Moray's budding rugby stars had a chance to run out at Buckle rugby festival last week (6th Oct 2009). Boys and Girls teams from Portgordon, Portessie, Buckie's Millbank, Mosstodloch and Milnes all headed to Linzee Gordon Park.

They played seven aside touch rugby with 3 subs each. All matches lasted 12 minutes with the top two teams from the mini leagues competing in the final.
,
Active Schools co-ordinator Kevin Collins one of the organisers, was impressed by how well the girls took to the sport. "They were more competitive than the boys" he said. "People think girls aren't into rugby but that's not the case."

Moray's rugby development officer, James Sloggie said: "I usually find that, especially in primary schools girls are better at rugby than boys, i think its part of their development process, they put things together better"

The girls tournament was won by Mosstodloch, who beat Milne's by six tries to three. Milne's triumphed in the boys contest but only after an extremely tough final against Millbank. After 12 minutes both sides managed to put a try on the board, meaning the game went into extra time.
After the regulation three minutes the stalemate re-mained sending the game into a 'first score' sudden-death period. Both teams held out for four minutes before Miles finally broke through Millbanks defense to score the winning try.

Sloggie who refereed the final was impressed by the boys efforts describing it as "one of the best games of touch I've seen"

All the schools had four weeks of coaching Building up to the tournament. The aim of the tournament and training was to encourage youngsters to take up the sport. "Rugby has the potential to be huge in Moray, theres a lot of real talent out there." added Sloggie.

Cashback for Communities’ invests in Scottish Rugby’s Club Development Officer Network

Back in April 2008 it was announced that the Scottish Government had enlisted the services of Scottish Rugby to deliver free playing and coaching opportunities to more young Scots in areas of urban and rural deprivation. In recognition of the impact that jointly-funded Rugby Club Development Officers (D.O.’s) have made on numbers playing rugby in schools and clubs, the ‘Cashback for Communities’ initiative will invest £1.4 million over 3 years into the D.O. network. This funding will help secure new and sustain existing D.O. posts, and to provide them with the resources necessary to deliver new programmes such as Street Rugby and the Youth Coaching Course.

Scottish Rugby is committed to delivering free rugby activities to a total of 32,000 young Scots across all 32 Local Authorities by 2011, and to do so through 4 key strands delivered by the expanded D.O. network.

1. School Rugby

An expanded primary and secondary schools rugby programme started in earnest in August 2008 with over 50 development officers delivering quality sessions on a regular basis. There are now 70 development officers in place and, by July 2009, over 900 primary and 250 secondary schools had received regular coaching and support. With over 100,000 individual children taking part so far, interest and participation in rugby should continue to increase in schools and clubs. An increasing number of these sessions are being delivered in schools in and around areas of deprivation, so we are well on the way to exceeding our ‘Cashback’ targets.

2. Club Development

The growing network of rugby club D.O.’s continue to provide an essential link or pathway from schools and community programmes into their clubs; essential support to new and existing volunteers; and help create structures for growing participation in all areas of club rugby. The Regional Development Managers are continuing to develop new partnerships with clubs and other local bodies.

3. Volunteer development

Young people are not only potential players, but may also play a valuable part in rugby as coaches, referees and in other volunteer roles. The ‘Cashback’ funding has allowed Scottish Rugby to develop and publish the Youth Coaching Course which will see over 1500 young people (by 2011) work through a free training programme over a number of weeks. This will include classroom-based and practical elements culminating in completion of the Foundation award in coaching, and their deployment into roles where they can manage/assist and possibly lead coaching sessions in their clubs, schools or communities.

Youth Coaching Course Workbook

Our thanks go to Perthshire RFC who played a key role in developing and piloting the course and all those who supported the development of the resources. Further information on planned courses can be found at:

www.cashbackscotland.com/events.php

4. Street Rugby

Rugby…Coming to a Street Near You!

The final strand is the development of a non-contact and portable version of rugby that can be packaged up and taken into new communities over a number of weeks. Street Rugby is simple enough to be set up in school playgrounds, local games areas, or even a car park or street corner. As well as taking rugby to young people who are unlikely to participate in structured school/club rugby, it provides them with an informal and fun activity that can divert them away from low level crime or anti social behaviour in their community. The aim is to deliver Street Rugby in 70 locations across Scotland in year 1, building skill levels so that local mini leagues or tournaments can be organised. Resources and equipment are now in place across Scotland; and pilots have been delivered in East Ayrshire, Glasgow (East), Clackmannanshire and Hawick. The National programme is currently being rolled out as target venues and times are agreed with local experts. Details may be found at:

http://www.cashbackscotland.com

A video of Street Rugby in Glasgow can be found at:

http://www.scottishrugby.org/community/content/view/1572/331/

The ‘Cashback for Communities’ investment is crucial for sustaining the growing development network in Scotland, increasing participation, and taking rugby to new audiences in their communities. Detailed targets have been set for every strand of the initiative and progress towards them is monitored on a monthly basis with the Scottish Government. We are fully committed to exceeding those targets and working with our counterparts in the SFA, Basketballscotland and Scottish Sports Futures in helping make ‘Cashback’ a great success. This represents the start of what we hope will be a successful and mutually beneficial relationship with the Scottish Government in the longer term.

Our thanks go to those clubs, volunteers, D.O.’s and local partners who have supported the roll-out of the programme so far.
