Image Recognition
Steve Weingart, 50, is a coach at Buckingham RUFC and has been shortlisted in the challenging spirit category at the Honda Volunteer of the Year awards after receiving regional recognition at a ceremony at Beaconsfield RFC last month. Weingart received the challenging spirit award for Buckinghamshire to recognise his efforts for his local club across a variety of roles. I was at the awards ceremony at Beaconsfield Rugby Club and it was all a bit surreal. But what has really driven the former full-back over the last year has been his commitment to the social aspect of rugby, which has seen him develop a thriving touch rugby section. “The social aspects are so important in rugby.”Volunteers are the backbone of grassroots rugby in England.
