Dear Hucclecote Ladies RFC,
I'm posting on here in order to re-share information about new research I'm conducting at the University of Bath in order to give anyone the opportunity who may have missed taking part in the first place. The survey will be closing this week so this will be the last chance for anyone to share their experiences.
If you menstruate, currently play 15-a-side rugby union, or have played rugby within the past year in England, are aged 18 or above, and pre-menopausal you're eligible to participate in this survey.
I welcome responses from all women who play rugby β not just those who feel they might have an issue with their menstrual cycle.
The aim is to determine the prevalence of heavy menstrual bleeding in this context, whether this relates to a perceived disruption to rugby training and performance, and how so.
The anonymous survey can be accessed below and will take no longer than 10 minutes to complete online.

Thank you to those who have participated already.
Many thanks,

Dear Hucclecote Ladies RFC,
Iβm a retired rugby player carrying out my Masters of Research (MRes) degree at the University of Bath. I am conducting new research on The Prevalence and Experiences of Heavy Menstrual Bleeding among Women Rugby Players: a sequential explanatory mixed-methods study.
Iβm looking for participants who regularly menstruate, currently play 15-a-side rugby union, or have played rugby within the past year in England, are aged 18 or above, and pre-menopausal to complete the below anonymous survey. I welcome responses from all women who play rugby β not just those who feel they might have an issue with their menstrual cycle. The purpose of this research is to determine the prevalence of heavy menstrual bleeding in this context before exploring why this may occur and, if necessary, what can be put in place to reduce this impact.
The anonymous survey can be accessed below and will take no longer than 10 minutes to complete online.

Can anyone help out coaching the girls this morning at the club? . I'm desperate. Other coach unable to make it and Dan is on his own and doesn't feel confident. Thank you.
Well done girls ππ π
Evening ladies- your friendly neighbourhood ref here!
Just wanted to remind anyone who was interested that there is an opportunity to do the referee course ERRA on 1st & 8th Feb
https://gms.rfu.com/GMS/coursefinder at Civil Service in Cheltenham.
It doesnβt often happen on Saturdays, so this is a really great opportunity to learn how refs ref (and therefore how best to cheat?!*) even if you arenβt planning on refereeing immediately.
If you did want to have a proper go at refereeing youβd get a warm welcome at the society as well. Get in touch if youβve got any questions. More female refs needed please, weβre in short supply!
*not that youβd ever cheat, obviously...
Thanks to Jess and all the ladies for allowing me to observe the training session this evening whilst I gain experience to help with coaching the Hucclecote Girls. Hereβs a short clip of the Tug of War....interesting tactics πππ. See you all again soon ππ»πππ»π
Would any of the Hucclecote Ladies like to join the girls Rugby team for a fun session at Painswick on Sunday morning? A fun and friendly end to the season. If any of you would like to join us from 10:00 you'd be more than welcome π
Just send me a DM to let me know. Thank you.

One for the ladies.....
Would like to wish everyone associated with the Hucclecote ladies rugby π team a very merry Christmas ππ
& all the best for 2019 for more success on the rugby π pitch plus much rugby π love π to you all ππππππ
