There is such a wide range of quality and availability of match reports in Y1, I think its time we had a look.

1) Why do some clubs not seem to publish match reports? Lack of volunteers, lack of will or tactical (sad)?
2) Are some clubs biased in their reporting?
3) Are some clubs deluded in their reporting?
4) Which clubs are most balanced?
5) Is it reasonable at a good standard of rugby (which Y1 is) to expect teams to publish match reports promptly? We are supposed to be trying to grow the game not keep it secret.
Loving all rugby but especially at grassroots level.


get that into yer!

Which clubs only post when they win?.... The Pikies from the East coast are definitely guilty of this!

Wath used to be excellent - with reports and photos from every game. Just had a look on their website and there has only been one item added in the last 3 months.

I'm sure you'll be glad to know I've just looked and despite the delay the Wath site has been updated now

Personal view is it's down to laziness, I always enjoy reading club's reports and there is nothing better than a functioning website to have a good read of to see how a club is doing. The pitchero web sites are a bit of a bug bear as they offer the facility for a club to lock the content so that you have to register with pitchero in able to gain access. I know his Lordship isn't a fan of these.

Your website and match reports are a good advertisement of a club and seeing a defunct looking web site with no reports is a put off to potential players and fans in my opinion.

My missus did the website last year, but with starting a new job it takes a little longer than it used to. But will get done.
