Many thanks to RGC U19 GMG for supplying the following update and appeal for clubs to discuss the contents.
These are certainly unprecedented times we are now living in, nothing which anyone of use envisaged at the time we held the Youth Forum meeting on the 9th March at Colwyn Bay. The season now decimated and all Rugby put on hold until further notice. We don’t have a crystal ball but we would like to start looking towards next season, with a view to put some plans in place for when we may be able to start playing again
The GMG have discussed the proposals made by the clubs at the last Youth Forum meeting held at Colwyn Bay on the 9th March and have the following options for U16’s U17’s and Youth Rugby.
We would like you to discuss these options within your clubs, as best you can currently, and let us know which option in each case is preferred and what teams are likely to be entered into each league and competition. We would ask clubs to be honest when committing to these choices so that all games can take place and no one else losses out. We would like this information by Sunday 31st May 2020.
U17’s & Youth Rugby
Pre Xmas
U17s GMG League and WRU U19 League (this would be with the express understanding that WRU U19 League games take precedence and not postponed to play U17 GMG games)
Post Xmas
GMG U19s Championship & Premiership
GMG U19s Cup
Option 1
U17 League extension, Cup
Option 2
U17 teams to be allowed to play in Premiership or Championship depending on their ability
Rules and Format will follow once we know how many teams and clubs will be involved
U16 & U14 GMG Cup
Option1:
2 Cups (Eryri & North East) with a champions of Champions decider
Option2:
1 cup Eryri & North East merge to make 1 North Wales Cup
Dates will be agreed well in advance to try and avoid RAG dates. Rules and Format will follow once we know how many teams and clubs will be involved
I would therefore ask that these proposals are taken back to your clubs and discussed and that you reply back to me with your expressions of interest for each age group and the options you would prefer by 31st May 2020
Once we know the number of teams in each age group we will then design a format which suits and produce a timetable and some rules.
Many thanks
