Course reviews
Thomas Fairclough — SingaporeConsidering Epsom Girls Grammar is so far behind the 8 ball in womans rugby, kind of a silly place to look for advice. Although EJ is an exceptional player and person.
James Hadley — Englandcoach for wellington is not a nice bloke.. had an argument with one of the parents during the game for trying to get his touch judge to be more ‘sceptical’ with where my team had kicked the ball into touch
