Following the sub aqua session at our Splash Night,

we have received this email.

"Thanks so much for having us at the session on Saturday. As promised - I wanted to send you some information to send out to members (especially those who expressed an interest in diving) and put on your website.

The Rugby Divers Rugby Sub Aqua Club – Rugby's Local Diving Club are part of the British Sub Aqua Club (BSAC) and are supporting BSACs Accessibility - diving for all which aims to make diving accessible to anyone with disabilities through training instructors to take people in to the water and support people to realise that diving isn't necessarily out of their grasp. 

We meet at the Queens Diamond Jubilee Centre on Monday nights to do both classroom lectures and pool sessions and would welcome anyone who may be interested to contact us to discuss coming along to a try dive. Anyone who may wish to discuss it further is welcome to contact either myself on laurabritland@yahoo.co.uk (I'm a Diving for All rep) or the clubs chairperson, Dave Lowe on Chairman@RugbyDivers.org We're very happy to chat and come back to any of your sessions if you feel its helpful.

With very best wishes

Laura"

To talk about the Games

Both were multiple medal winners in the games in Toronto in September and Jen was Vice-Captain of the British team.

The committee of Rugby Sport for the Disabled Association (RSDA) have met with the Relief Manager and Community Sport Officer of the Queen's Diamond Jubilee Centre (QDJC) and had a very helpful discussion on the way forward.

More details will become available in the coming weeks, but GLL  would like RSDA to continue, very much in its current form with support from GLL.

They will be able to provide much help in the way of training, marketing and funding opportunities.

The committee feel that the future of RSDA now looks vey much brighter than it has done for a long time.

We will keep you up to date with developments as they happen
