22hrs To Tag Rugby 2015

With just 22 hours to go to Tag Rugby 2015 we are working very hard to ensure the day is enjoyable for you all and a successful day for the Trust.

Without your support we wouldn't have a successful day, and we hope as many of you as possible will be joining us again.

We have lots going on with the Yorkshire Regiment joining us with an inflatable assault course and paintball, the Yorkshire Air Ambulance bringing a stall and much more. Don't forget the Hog Roast!!!

We are still appealing for a couple more referees if anyone can spare and hour or 2 we would be grateful, free kit supplied along with lunch.

Everything kicks off for spectators at 10am with entry being £4.00 per adult, children are free.

1 Week to Tag Rugby 2015

Well we have just 1 week to our Tag Rugby event, we are working like mad now on this.


We've had great support from Iain Harris Physio Solutions with the referees kit sponsorship, Try Tag Rugby with their sponsorship by supplying Tag Rugby shorts for us to sell to keep us inline with all other Tag Rugby events

The great news this week is that we are covered for Under 14's teams and mixed teams also, so if you want to register please follow this link Tag Rugby Registration any issues please email nathantagrugby@gmail.com or phone Mark Dunstan on 07595337159

We are also looking for referees still if anyone out there can please help us for a few hours, kit and lunch provided.

At half time we will have lots going on, but the first thing we will be doing is taking time to remember the Keighley Cougars player Danny Jones, followed by a stand up auction for his family, lets show that rugby may be 2 codes but as we know from when Nathan was injured that it is one family. If anyone can supply a signed short for this we would be most grateful, however we do hva some great auction items if not.

Tag Rugby 2105 Special Words from the Cubitt Family

Hello all,

Just thought I would write a few words before we go into full Tag Mode for the next couple of weeks.

We would like to take a minutes silence at half time on Tag day for Danny Jones.  I am sure that throughout the game both league and union, we never expect our loved ones never to return home to us.

This must be so very heartbreaking, devastating and life changing.  I am sure everyone will be helping Danny's family, team and club throughout this tragic time and beyond.  Our thoughts and prayers go to you all.

We have been kindly sent a signed shirt that we are going to do a stand up auction for.  All of the proceeds from the stand up auction will go to Danny's fund so please dig deep.

"It can never happen us" - well this comment has been proven now twice within very close proximity within both sides of our close rugby family that tragedies do happen but what has been resounding is the support and unity within this sport.

We have said all along that this is not just a sport, it's a family and one that we are very very proud to be part of.

Nathan has finally started Gym this week and hopefully will start to strengthen his arms to be able to learn to drive.  This is a massive step forward (figure of speech)!
He has been dogged with multiple situations over the last 30 weeks and more, at one stage he has spent a staggering 16 weeks in bed, but, he still stays remarkably strong and determined to
beat what ever is thrown at him even missing out on the last few episodes of Top Gear (although this was hardest to have to endure) !!!

We are driven, even more now to make this event the biggest and best with fun for all the family and bringing more people into the Rugby community.

I hope to see you all that this year's events.  As always, if you want to get involved with the planning, helping on the day, having a stall or just idea's PLEASE get in touch with the event management team.

THANK YOU.

Love the Cubitt's

Just to add the event is on Sunday 24th May with registration starting at 9am, we have also had it confirmed we can have juniors involved in the event, but for safety we would like to encourage this to be in the style of dads (or mums) and lads or girls teams. Please click on the registration tab on the top of the page for registration details

At half-time we will be doing a few different things this year including stand up bingo, a minutes silence for Danny Jones and we are hoping to have a signed shirt to do a stand up auction for, again this will be for the Danny Jones Trust. As we have told Gary Fawcett and all those at the Keighley Cougars, we may be 2 codes but we are one family, so please come and show your support.
