Dick Jewitt RIP Kidderminster at home Centenary – 25 April

Dick Jewitt’s family have confirmed that his funeral will be held at Canon Hill Chapel, Canley, CV4 7DF, on Monday 20 April at 10.30 and afterwards at the Rugby Club. Our thoughts and condolences are offered to Sue, Tom, Sally and their wider family. Any donation should be made to the Rugby Club and the arrangements for doing so are on the website
There were no games over the Easter break but the season resumes on Saturday, with three games to go in the league - Kidderminster, Camp Hill and Droitwich - we then start to celebrate our Centenary
• We are at home to Kidderminster on Saturday at 3.00. They have been in the two relegation slots all season but are inclined to come up with the occasional good performance, like when they beat us in December. We need to reverse that result on Saturday to keep clear of the relegation places
• The Extras are away at Barkers Butts in Warwickshire League 1
• The Colts have a friendly with Evesham on Sunday at 2.00
• The U16 are at home to Broadstreet on Sunday at 11.00
• The U13 are at home to Nuneaton
• The U11 are at Earlsdon
• The U10 are at home to Kidderminster
• The U9 are home to Stratford
• The U8 and U7 are training
