Once again, Orrell RUFC will be taking part in the great Wigan Christmas Dash around Mesnes Park only this year, we'd like to get as many of our Minis, Juniors and Parents involved as possible.

This is a fun run for all ages and abilities and is a fun way of raising funds for Orrell RUFC. The Dash route is 5 laps of a 1k Loop (5k in total) taking you round the fantastic scenery of Mesnes Park. The start will be next to the famous statue of Sir Francis Sharp Powell which, at the time, was only the second statue built of a living person. It was unveiled in 1910 and Sir Francis Sharp Powell attended the unveiling.

All entrants will receive a Santa suit to run in, and a turkey sandwich, mince pie and mulled wine or water at the finish, and all are included within your entry fee!

Entry forms (together with sponsorship forms) are available from Team Coaches and Managers.

Let's try and get as many people running in Orrell shirts & Santa Hats as possible! Click on this link Santa Dash 2017 and see all the Orrell shirts running in last year's event!

The Future may be Black and Amber ... but at Christmas it's black, amber and red!
