Alumni Aims
The growing strength and influence
of the Student Rugby League is not only reflected in the quality and increasing
number of teams in the SRL itself, but also in the rise of the Student Rugby
League Alumni.
What
is the SRL Alumni?
The Alumni was formed as an extended
arm of the SRL,to prevent the loss of personnel from the sport of rugby league
once their student days are over by offering them a means to continue their
participation in Rugby League, and also to assist the SRL itself in a variety
of ways - marketing, organisation, club development etc. Old Boys clubs have
been formed in london, Manchester and Leeds, and Alumni members are also active
in other clubs throughout the country, many of whom play in the summer Rugby
league Conference.
What
are the aims of the Alumni?
- The Alumni views National Development
as being crucial to the continuing strength of the sport , and the increasing
involvement of student players (both current and graduate) in such developments
is a firm indication of this resolve.
- The Alumni is also becoming an
important voice in the broad Rugby League arena , and we aim to put the views
of our members to those in authority. Alumni members can really make a difference
to the way our game is run and the way it will develop!
- In addition to assisting our members
in Rugby League Playing , we also aim to do what we can to offer assistance
in other areas of life that become important to students once they leave university/college,
such as jobs for example . Work in such areas is an ongoing task , and significant
developments can be expected.
- Playing Rugby League at university/college
for the vast majority, is one of the highlights of their student days, and
most look back with pride and nostalgia at the at the great time had and the
achievements made .The SRL Alumni aims to provide a continuation of this,
post-graduation, with social events a means of keeping in touch with the SRL
and Rugby League generally, and many money saving offers.The membership is
growing all the time, and alongside some very influential and famous members,
there are tons of regular people who have seen the benefits of joining the
Alumni.The larger the numbers become , the easier it is to bring you top quality
offers and discounts.

an interest in rugby league as well as those with a current or past involvement
in the SRL, so come and join us today and become
