Steve Heard

Steve’s history with Cobham RFC started when his son joined the Minis section. He quickly took the lead, with a group of other parents, to take the age group forward. As under 15s they took 33 boys accompanied to South Africa which was a unique and fantastic experience for all concerned. As his son joined the second team, Steve moved to run that.

During this period Steve also became Youth Chair, during which time they won the National Under 17 Cup, in a memorable day at Franklin’s Gardens Leicester.

Steve became Cobham RFC and Cobham Rugby & Sports Association Chair 12 years ago. The later involves managing the commercial activities of the Club and developing the grounds for all the sports hosted there. During this time Cobham installed the AGP. The RFU have been delighted with the venture and many other clubs have asked about how the process worked.

Steve plays tennis and golf and watchs a lot of rugby, cricket, athletics and soccer. He believes passionately that all forms of sport activity are good, particularly for children to learn and develop life skills.
