I have been playing rugby in the winter, but indoor nets started early November, continue to late April ready for the new season, need to try get some feel of a ball early

Nets start Feb 2010 but trying to get extras starting in Jan but the facility we use is fully booked, possibly down the fact its the best indoor facility I've seen in a few years. Wish i was netting now though ? perhaps if any team in the North East is already netting i could pop along and join in ?

Where do you net Watson? We sometimes have a few nets at the riverside which is down your way isnt it? If we are going down this year i will give you a pm and you would be more than welcome to come along but i dont think we are there this year.

Ridiculous gymmage at the moment.  Trying to sort the weight problem I've had since I was a little 'un out.  Have lost 2 and a half stone since October 16th thus far.  Would like to shift another 2 or 3 before the season starts.  Start netting with one club end of Jan, and with the other mid Feb, and start coaching youngsters of a third next week.  Should keep me busy!!

You're welcome to it Leo!  It was alright being a big lad when I was munching scrums left, right and centre.  Now cricket is my only real sport,  I need to get a lot fitter!

I've pretty much given up golf which is annoying, as it was nice to play in the winter. Been training since October which will go through to April time, thats with Wessex Academy Development. I hope to get a place in the actual Wessex Academy in January which will involve workshops, one-2-one coaching, video analysis. Thats the weekend all used up and hope to start club nets February time in the week
