Looking back, it has been a fantastic start to our centenary celebrations. Highlights of 2024 included the Whole Club Launch weekend, the presentation to the club of the framed limited edition print of a painting hanging in the RFU HQ which commemorates the "Red Roses: Past, Present and Future" by Deborah Griffin, the spectacular Centenary Fireworks Night, and the unveiling of our ambitious £100,000 Centenary Community Sport Fund to deliver facility improvements. These events have truly set the tone for what promises to be a remarkable milestone year for Finchley Rugby Club.

Looking ahead, 2025 is packed with more exciting centenary events. Mark your calendars for the Centenary Summer Ball, a memorable Twickenham Club Day, and our 1925 City Lunch. These events will provide fantastic opportunities to come together as a club and celebrate 100 years of rugby and community spirit.

Please keep an eye on the club website for more details on these events and other updates. Importantly, we’ll also be seeking your support and involvement in the first of our five Centenary Priority Projects – the Centenary Gym. This is an exciting step in our long-term vision to enhance our facilities for all members, and your contributions will be vital in making it a reality.

Thank you for being part of this incredible journey. Let’s make 2025 a year to remember as we celebrate the past and build an even brighter future for Finchley Rugby Club.

Best wishes,
Finchley Rugby Club
