THE ROTARY Club of Troon supported Marr Rugby by presenting them with a cheque.

On Saturday, August 19, the rotary welcomed Heather McGuffie, Past President of Rotary Club of Troon, to Fullarton where she presented a cheque for £500 to David Christian, Convener of Marr Rugby’s Minis.

She said: “I was delighted to present a cheque today to Marr Rugby Club on behalf of the Rotary Club of Troon.

“We knew that Marr Rugby was doing wonderful work in getting young people involved in sport and learning and developing from this and watching the training today I was gobsmacked at those kids’ enthusiasm for rugby.”

On behalf of Marr Rugby, David, added: “We are very pleased and grateful to get this support from the Rotary Club of Troon and want to thank them for this generous donation.

“It means we will be able to do a bit more as we give opportunities for young people to be involved in, enjoy and learn from playing rugby.”

The donation will be used to help develop the skills and qualifications of volunteer coaches.
