DK Vixens the story so far (10th November 2008)

DK ladies started training three seasons ago to challenge the gentlemen to an end of season match in aid of charity. A great day to celebrate the end of season and raise a great deal of money for various charities this has now become a yearly fixture. However the ladies enjoyed both the training and the team spirit so much (not to mention the social side!) that they have taken things a couple of steps further and have formed a team of their own.

We are currently playing in the Midlands RFUW Development League and as it is our first season in an official league are doing exceptionally well (currently unbeaten!). At the moment we appear to be going from strength to strength and regularly have almost 30 ladies turn up to training on a Monday night which is more than most men’s teams could ever dream of having.

The ladies are always looking to recruit more players and welcome anybody to their training sessions on Monday evenings at 7.00pm - no experience is required just a great deal of enthusiasm! Players have to be 18 years of age to play in a match in any position but are welcome to train at any age with an eye to the future of the team. A girls tag team is also run on a Sunday morning at 10.30am. (Contact Anne Keen on 07957107189). We are all a very friendly bunch of ladies and a major factor that has lead to our success so far is that we are a close knit team both on and off the pitch. Currently we are very fortunate to have both a backs and a forwards coach, so whether you have played before or not you will gain a lot from turning up to a training session with us.
