Reminder to all sections that a review meeting will take place at the Club on Sunday 8 May at 2pm to discuss all the lessons learned from the past season.

Topics:

What has been good/enjoyable/positive etc about the last season? The positives
What has not been good/enjoyable/positive etc about the last season? The frustrations
Have we missed anything?
Are there ideas that you know of both in/out Orkney and/or from other clubs you are involved with, that you think may be worth adopting by ORFC?

People can join and stay for as long or as short a period that they like as I know people will have other commitments.
