Maidenhead RFC U16 Argentina & Uruguay 2010 - Daily Tour Blog
After a massive fundraising drive and memorable evenings with Sir Ian McGeechan, Lawrence Dallaglio and Stuart Barnes, along with a new indoor tackling World Record, our tour is finally upon us.
Leaving on Thursday 8th July we are straight into action on Friday 9th with 2 matches against Buenos Aires Cricket & Rugby Club. We then have a few days of local activities including working with a couple of orphanages before playing 2 matches against St Brendan's College, also in Buenos Aires. (St Brendan's will be visiting Maids in September).
We then travel to Rosario and play 2 matches against Universitario de Rosario before crossing the River Plate and heading for Montevideo where the final matches of the tour are against the Uruguayan national U16 and U17 sides. Hopefully all in one piece, we then cross back to Buenos Aires and fly back, arriving in the UK on 20th July.
We'll be posting match reports and updates as often as we can so please check our Daily updates here.

MRFC awarded RFU Whole Club Seal of Approval
Maidenhead Rugby Club is proud to announce they have been awarded the RFU Whole Club Seal of Approval.
The pathway to the award followed weeks of intensive work from the club committee to demonstrate to the RFU they have built on the standard achieved in obtaining the Mini & Youth Seal of Approval in 2008.
By expanding to include all playing activity within the club we can now proudly show the local community we are a club that is fully inclusive.
The Seal of Approval and the Sport England Clubmark accreditation scheme are based upon a three-year rolling award system in which the club will be assessed on its continuing ability to provide a safe and effective club environment.
Maidenhead qualified by the completing and assessment file and the writing of a three-year development plan. By implementing the development plan, with an annual review, it will continue to be accredited and ensure continuous improvement in provision for the players at the club.
The award is indicative of the quality of provision the club offers, and its commitment to the continued development and growth of rugby. The club now displays certification to confirm accreditation, both from the RFU and Sport England.
Sean Egan, Director of Finance, who coordinated the club's submission said, "We are proud to have achieved the Seal of Approval, but as importantly, see this now as a springboard to enhancing the quality of the services we provide to our members and the wider community".
