Effingham & Leatherhead RFC are hosting their annual Minis Rugby Festival on the 23rd April 2023. Over 100 teams involved across the age groups from U7 to U11.

In addition, we are expanding and improving the Festival Hub, giving sponsors and attendees more interest and opportunity to engage. The food and catering is being boosted with involvement of professional catering leads; entertainment will be provided for the kids and non-players alike, and we are increasing our community engagement through the presence of local Scouting troops who will be there to assist.

Parking at the 2023 Minis Festival

As with all festivals we are constrained on car parking space, please therefore wherever possible ask people to car share. This will improve participation in the festival for everyone.

Please note all attending clubs must park in accordance the parking plan below.

  • Each club has been allocated a parking area based on expected number of visitors. The allocation has been made on the assumption that there will be 30% less cars than players, so please ensure parents are aware and arrange to car share.
  • Strictly no parking on Browns Lane.
  • No parking is available at the club house without a permit. (Clubs with allocated parking away from the festival site will be allowed one parking space per age group at the club house (Grey) for those with equipment) – please only print one copy per age group per club, checks will be made on the car park entrance.
  • Follow instructions given by ELRFC car parking marshals.
  • Park within indicated areas.
  • If you block another car in, please leave your phone number on your dashboard.
  • If parking on the festival site be very aware of children and other pedestrians.
  • Do not park in residential developments or on corners.
