Malton and Norton RUFC

Due to the ongoing lack of rugby being played at the club and the associated lack of matchday takings the club has taken a big hit from covid 19.

We want to ensure the Gannock remains the focal point for rugby in the area.

We need everyone involved with the club to "lean in" a little to secure the long term future of the club.

The executive committee of the club is extremely grateful to all those who have renewed their memberships at this tricky time and also to all our valued sponsors who have renewed their arrangements.

We have decided to launch a crowdfunding campaign to tide the club over through what is probably going to be a very tough winter.

We are looking for "Guardians of the Gannock" to support the club a little bit more than you maybe already do. We know this is a big ask at this time but we are doing our best to make sure the club hits it's 70th birthday in 2023 and carries on much longer than that.

We want the young lasses and lads of the under 6s to be able to have a club to enjoy their rugby right through the minis up to senior teams.

The link for the crowdfunder is below.

The biggest thing we could do is ask everyone at a minimum to like and share this post - if you aren't in a position to contribute financially then maybe someone in your social media contacts might?

The campaign is being co-ordinated by Ian Hepworth who is the head of women and girls rugby at the club. Get in touch with Ian at ij.hepworth@gmail.com

We will be contacting local businesses to see if they can help us so get in touch if your business can help.

Thank you once again for helping us keeping the Gannock at the heart of the Ryedale community.
