Dear players, coaches and parents,
Thank you for accepting the invitation to participate in the U10 Hockey and Rugby Festival here at Marlborough on Wednesday 30th November. There is an exciting afternoon in store with some fantastic fixtures in prospect.
Sport is part of daily life here at Marlborough. We strive for every pupil to participate actively and to have a truly positive experience, developing a lifelong interest in and lasting enjoyment of sporting activity that will foster good habits long into adulthood. I do hope you get a sense of the energy and enthusiasm for sport during your visit today and are able to enjoy the College’s wonderful facilities.
I hope you and your teams have an enjoyable visit to Marlborough and I look forward to seeing you on the day.
