Please read carefully all points before submitting application form.
- The club must be accredited by the RFU. If it is going through the re-accreditation process, there must be no significant delays in the process of reaccreditation.
- The club must run the festival in line with RFU regulations.
- The club must run the festival in line with the rules set by Surrey Rugby for mini rugby festivals which are :
a) All matches for all years must be run as mixed ability.
b) Should a festival be cancelled, the host clubs must provide a refund of festival fees no less than 75% but realistically should be more (host clubs can deduct non recoverable cost incurred to host original). The option to offer a credit and give clubs a place at a future festival can also be used to offset any refund due, but if the club cannot attend, then a refund must be given.
c) The festival format must follow RFU age grade guidelines for mini festivals (i.e. there should be no leagues or knockout stages/final and no overall winner or a winner’s cup).
d) The club must not be in dispute with another club about unpaid invoices for attending previous festivals.
