Today we play the Invictus Team GB Team at our home in Poole. I am so nervous about it!!!! Apart from the fact that it's a match, it's ex Service Men and Women who have fought for us. And for a little old club in Division 3 to get the National Squad coming down it's something else. I feel...

Any chance of a shout out for all the grassroots wheelchair rugby clubs who have also been given a kick in the nuts because of the removal of funding for Team GB in the Paralympics? http://thedorsetdestroyers.weebly.com/blog/team-gb-wheelchair-rugby-not-in-the-paralympics

I cannot understand the idea that if Team GB who are the European Champions and are ranked 5th in the World all of a sudden lose all their funding!!! For a grassroots club like ourselves (The Dorset Destroyers) it's a massive kick in the nuts...
