The TVRU would like to thank the Hauraki North Rugby Club for all their hard work and dedication over the past two seasons facilitating our only Women\u2019s Club team. Their ongoing support towards Women\u2019s Rugby in our province is integral and we are sincerely grateful for their support to get us where we are today.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Women\u2019s Club Competition in 2025 anticipates retaining all six (6) teams from 2024, whilst also attracting other TVRU Clubs to possibly join the frame. As the pathway through the Secondary School Girls 1<sup>st<\/sup> XV competition continues to get stronger, and now allowing players to join us from outside the Thames Valley province, the competition will certainly leverage these resources to continue growing player numbers and quality of Rugby.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As the Women\u2019s game has progressed from zero (0) to two hundred (200+) players in a five-year period. It is fantastic that the TVRU Clubs are driven to make this a sustainable and attractive product, understanding that we must be able to walk before we can sprint. To reflect this, both the TVRU and Clubs must cater for this growth and ensure every Woman living in this province has an opportunity to play in a Bonafide competition.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">All players who play within the TVRU Women\u2019s Club Competition in 2025 will be eligible for the Thames Valley Vixens who play in the North Island Women\u2019s Heartland Competition, where we were runners up this year to Whanganui. There will also be a Vixens Training Squad selected, whom will have a number of trainings and play two (2) games throughout the Club season to measure their development. Appropriate breaks will be made in the Women\u2019s Club Competition to protect the integrity of the competition.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We look forward to releasing the confirmed Competition framework early next year. This will follow Club Entries and a current reshape of the TVRU Bylaw\u2019s. At this stage we can confirm the following.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Key Information:<\/strong> (All bullet points are TBC by the Clubs until teams are confirmed in February)<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>Competition Dates (April \u2013 July).<\/li>\n<li>Length (10 Matches).<\/li>\n<li>Player Numbers (15-aside).<\/li>\n<li>Rules &amp; Regulations (All EDSLV\u2019s will be applied).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you have any questions or require more information, please contact your local Club Delegate. We look forward to seeing you all in 2025. #TogetherAsOne<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Thames Valley Rugby Union, in collaboration with the TVRU Council of Clubs are proud to announce the continuation of the Thames Valley Women\u2019s&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":4061,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_price":"","_stock":"","_tribe_ticket_header":"","_tribe_default_ticket_provider":"","_tribe_ticket_capacity":"","_ticket_start_date":"","_ticket_end_date":"","_tribe_ticket_show_description":"","_tribe_ticket_show_not_going":false,"_tribe_ticket_use_global_stock":"","_tribe_ticket_global_stock_level":"","_global_stock_mode":"","_global_stock_cap":"","_tribe_rsvp_for_event":"","_tribe_ticket_going_count":"","_tribe_ticket_not_going_count":"","_tribe_tickets_list":"[]","_tribe_ticket_has_attendee_info_fields":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4060","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-school"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/thamesvalleyswampfoxes.co.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Womens-Photo-TOGETHER-AS-ONE.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p8waX6-13u","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/thamesvalleyswampfoxes.co.nz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4060","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/thamesvalleyswampfoxes.co.nz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/thamesvalleyswampfoxes.co.nz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thamesvalleyswampfoxes.co.nz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thamesvalleyswampfoxes.co.nz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=4060"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/thamesvalleyswampfoxes.co.nz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4060\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4062,"href":"https:\/\/thamesvalleyswampfoxes.co.nz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4060\/revisions\/4062"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thamesvalleyswampfoxes.co.nz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/4061"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/thamesvalleyswampfoxes.co.nz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=4060"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thamesvalleyswampfoxes.co.nz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=4060"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thamesvalleyswampfoxes.co.nz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=4060"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
