President Jason Leonard OBE
Jason Leonard OBE is the first player from the professional era to become President of the Rugby Football Union and support for his appointment ranged from his club Barking RFC to former international opponents and rugby clubs up and down the country.
The game has huge affection for England’s most capped player and Rugby World Cup 2003 winner, Jason having made no less than 290 appearances for Harlequins in a career spanning both the amateur and professional game.
He was the youngest ever to pack down in England's front row when he made his debut in 1990 aged just 21. Fourteen years later he retired with a record 114 caps.

The largest Saracens Junior Training Camp in the UK took place at Knole Paddock on Thursday and Friday 27 and 28 August. The event was kindly supported by our Club sponsor Sanlam.
Saracens coaches and various players from the Saracens and the Oaks taking part. The camp coincided with Girls Rugby Camp, run by U20 England International Scarlet Cooper-Wall.
The two day event is designed to foster young talent, both girls and boys. Scarlet, Saracens and Sanlam, who presented every player with an impressive goody bag, were full of praise for the players and the way they approached the sessions with both enthusiasm and commitment. They also said how much they enjoyed the Camp.
The Mighty Oaks and other Clubs' players who attended the camp now look forward to their 2015/16 season with new and renewed skills to bring to the fore.
The match versus Weybridge Vandals is being played at Staines RFC and not Weybridge RFC. It is a 3:00pm Kick off.
