Pre-match drinks, anyone?

After dropping off the players, instead of sitting in our cars, Touchliners have been known to gather in a pub near to whichever venue we’re visiting.

When we’re at the school site, we go to The Brewery Tap, a real ale pub near Abingdon town centre; when we’re at Cox’s, The Dog House in Frilford.

When we’re away, details are generally circulated by one of the regulars to the parents of those pupils who are playing at the venue.

See you in the pub and THEN on the touchline!
