The CRICC Harlequins Cardiff
High School Old Boys RFC was established in 1927, and like the name
suggests, was a club for former pupil of Cardiff High School. It became
an open club in the 1960's and in the 1990's the name 'Cardiff
Harlequins' was introduced by the late Vernon Pugh QC, partly due to the
introduction of national league rugby. The Junior section
of the club consists of under 14 to under 16 teams, run in partnership
with CRICC, a Welsh-speaking rugby club in Cardiff. CRICC run sides from
under 8, and the under 14, 15 and 16 teams play under the name of CRICC
Harlequins. Bi-lingual information about CRICC can be
found on their website
CRICC
Harlquins play at the Cardiff HSOB ground in Whitchurch.
Arrangements:
Food

Club provides an after match meal for visitors after official matches.
Usually when playing away food will be provided by the host team without

Rugby
shirts are provided for every games which
have been supplied by our kind sponsors. These will be collected after
each game. Players are expected to wear blue socks and blue shorts for
every game and provide their own boots and other necessities. We
recommend that all players wear a gum shield and have other protective
clothing as appropriate to their age. The club has negotiated a discount

Code
of Conduct
The
Club adheres to the WRU Code of Conduct which covers Players, Parents,
Spectators and Coaches. Extracts of the Code are displayed around the
Club and a full copy is kept behind the bar and is found on the CRICC
|website- www.cricc.org. Everyone is encouraged to abide not only by the
letter but also the spirit of the Code which will be actively enforced
by all Club Officers.
After Match
All Players, Supporters and Parents are asked to remain in the Club
(home or away) for at least 45 minutes after the match ends. This will
help generate the kind of atmosphere and camaraderie that differentiates
rugby from other games. For away matches we would also expect all
Players, Supporters and Spectators to show the same courtesy to our
hosts as we would expect from them.
Club Membership
All Parents and Supporters of the Youth and Junior teams are urged to
become Social Members of the Club. This will help us to comply with the
Licensing Laws and will also ensure a greater sense of involvement and
interest. Fully paid up Members are entitled to put their names forward
for the International Match Ticket Allocation and they can also book the
Clubhouse for any private social function without a booking fee. Members
are also entitled to vote at the Club AGM and can therefore influence
Club policy on a whole range of issues. We want you to become part of
the Club and enjoy its facilities as well as supporting your particular
teams.
