From Fourths to Firsts we operate as an "amateur" Club, so no one receives payment for playing. Training is at the Club on Tuesday and Thursday nights, 7.30 and ready to go. If conditions deteriorate during the winter months, then we tend to hire all weather or in door facilities at Rastrick School. We have the services of a Head Coach, Kevin Plant, and a Forwards' Coach, Ian Spence. We moved up to Yorkshire 1 a while ago, which is the highest level we've ever played at, and have now consolidated in that League. Though we still have an eye for further promotion. First Team Captain Grant Turton, Vice Captain Giles Hetherington and the two Coaches are working hard to see that this comes about and are supported in their efforts by all of the Officers of the Club plus the many players and followers of Heath. As far as match days go, players are provided with shirts for the game, but have to bring along their own socks and shorts etc. These can be bought at the Club at any time that we're open. See the "shop" on this site for prices. Players have full physiotherapy assessment / support at training and the Firsts have coverage before during and after the game. If further treatment is required, then we're linked to Heat Mount Physio in Halifax. Remember, that even though we've a strong and well-organised playing set up, we are also a welcoming Club with a good social life - just look at the events and news section on this site for confirmation. Finally, facilities have been substantially expanded and improved in recent times, to the benefit of both players and supporters alike. Because of this and with the excellent pitches at the Club, we feel we could be viewed as the Premiere Amateur Club in the Halifax and Calderdale area. |
