It is a great honour and privilege to be asked to be Chairman of Guilfordians RFC. Following from the sterling work that Alison did, it also is daunting. It would of course be my infinite preference, and I'm sure the preference of everyone in the Club, that Alison was with us to continue in the role and to see the results of her dedicated hard work on behalf of the Club come to fruition - we are indebted to her....

I joined Guildfordians when I was a student as Surrey Uni and loved every minute of it. There was something about playing with a group of men that weren’t playing to be the best or to increase their social standing but playing to for the love of the game and their teammates. After graduating I had to move away from the Surrey area for a few years. I sampled some other clubs where I was located but nothing could emulate the Guildfordians experience. When I moved to Woking, I was delighted that I could once again play my rugby on Stoke Park. Some of the faces changed, some stayed the same, but it still was the club that I grew to love.

As the new chairman of the men’s section, I look forward to continuing the legacy of this great club. The players/members are what makes the club, and my ambition is to grow the family whilst keeping our reputation as the best and friendliest club around.

There is no doubt I have a big job on my hands to uphold the standards Julie has set, and to be on the same board in the clubhouse as Julie and the other former Touch Chairs....
