University Rugby Team Turn Calendar Boys

November 18, 2009 By Rob Powell

The University of Greenwich rugby team have stripped off for to produce a calendar for the first time, which will help raise money for the team, and for charity.

Two versions of the calendar have been made – a family friendly version and a saucier, “adult” version. Both calendars cost £8.99 + P&P and are available to pre-order now. The official launch of the calendar is scheduled for the end of this month and some of the money will go towards sudden adult death syndrome (SADS) charity in memory of a former team member, Thomas Mulquin.

A spokesperson for the UGRFC said:

We decided to shoot our first calendar to celebrate many things. Firstly, our successful season last year where we were unbeaten and achieved promotion, resulting in our best season to date. Secondly, to raise the awareness of the club through all that we do in terms of charity, our matches and social activities. And lastly, to encourage support for our club and to help our steady rise, which we cannot do without the continued support of sponsors and the work of all the club members together. We hope you enjoy our first ever calendar as much as we did making it! And here is hoping there will be many more..

Update: the calendar is out now and the price has been cut. You can order online with the following links:
