From the Chairman Bob Annable:

I am delighted to let you know that Andy Pott has been confirmed as the winner of the Eastern Counties Volunteer of the Year Award for 2017. He will be presented with his award at the Eastern Counties Annual Dinner at Shelford Rugby Club on the 30th June.

You are all aware of the contribution Andy has made to Norwich Rugby Club over the years and last year in particular where he took on Five key roles in addition to coaching our under 13s. His commitment to the Club has been immense. This is clearly a well deserved award and it is great that his commitment to Norwich has been recognised by Eastern Counties.

His Support continues as our Honorary Secretary and Membership Secretary but more notably as our Club President for next Season which I know he is very much looking forward to.
