Rochdale Rugrats Rugby Christmas party
A Christmas party for the Rochdale Rugrats Rugby children’s team went down a storm on Saturday 21 December.
Organised by head coach Aidan Gleeson, the event saw a wondrous Santa’s grotto and even the Grinch popping in, thanks to Captain Jack’s Prop Shack.
Hot chocolates and homemade mince pies went down a treat and lots of people were successful on the raffle, which featured prizes donated from the Rochdale Hornets. A virtual reality stall was also hosted by The Grid VR.
All the children burnt off their energy on the Go Bouncy bouncy castle and many left the occasion with a character on their face or a fancy new glitter tattoo, courtesy of Fancy Faces.
Parents and grandparents alike praised the party, saying how they had a “great time” at such a “fantastic” event, thanking the coach.
Coach Gleeson said: “Thank you to everybody for attending and those who helped put the day together.”
Rochdale Rugrats is a youth rugby class for those between two and seven years of age. Approximately 40 children attended on the day.
