Helping out the Professionals !!
On Saturday Corey and Liam from the Onedrywash sponsored Doncaster Knights under 10s were mascots for the clubs professional team as they took on Bristol at Castle Park. The boys joined our team earlier this season, and have worked really hard to earn their chance to run out with the first team captain.
It was also Corey's birthday so it was an extra special day - I think you can see that from the smiles - well done boys !!

A bright but cold Sunday morning saw the Onedrywash sponsored Doncaster Knights under 10s training for their game against Matlock next weekend. We were privileged to have a visit from our first team Mentor Chris and Onedrywash Chairman Tim Jones.
Hopefully what they saw was the boys really bouncing back from a touch week at the office in York last weekend. They trained really well, and really looked composed and confident on the ball. Hopefully we can take this to match day next weekend.
Great to see Owain back from injury, and and excellent performance from player of the day James - well Done boys - keep it up

A Sunday to Remember
Sunday saw the Onedrywash sponsored Doncaster Knights under 10s make the trip north up the A19 to York, always a tough trip, and this year was no exception.
It was remembrance Sunday, and the boys took time as a team to remember those who had given their lives whilst fighting for their country, with an impeccable period of silence - well done and thanks boys.
The rugby was a very different affair, with lots of noise off the field and on it, amongst the confusion which seemed to reign throughout the first game.
We were playing on a huge pitch with a free flowing referee which often made it difficult for the boys to understand the decisions when the ref went back to them, but we got the hang of it and scored some great tries following some huge efforts. Frazer scored his first try of the season (second of his life !!) following last weeks strange decision not to reward him when he crossed the line, and the effort from the whole team meant we finished the stronger.
We changed the entire team for the second game, and things seemed to go much smoother with clearer direction from the ref making it easier for the boys to get on with what they had come to do - play rugby and enjoy themselves. Some big tackling from some of the backs, and a massive effort from eventual player of the day - Ryan saw a much closer game second time around.
Some valuable lessons were learned - play to the ref, focus on your game and most important keep having fun, which is exactly what we did - great effort, well done boys !!

Try Fest In Sheffield
Sunday saw the Onedrywash sponsored Doncaster Knights under 10s make the short trip down the M18 to Abbeydale Park in Sheffield.
After an energetic warm up, the boys took on Sheffield and despite having crossed the line with what looked like a great try for Frazer, it was Sheffield who edged ahead. It was a titanic battle, with the forwards working hard to knock each other over, and the backs passing and runnng with real style - was it finally clicking into place - well almost, but game 2 was to prove the highlight of the day.
After a short break, and a few changes, the team set about putting things right from the first game, and boy did they. With tries for forwards and backs, some of the best passing and running we have seen this season, the Knights bossed from start to finish, conceding only once late on, but having scored a hatful themselves.
A fantastic effort, a great game and a deserved result - well done boys, and especially player of the day Lewi.

Feature advert
Onedrywash would like to thank GO Outdoors for featuring Onedrywash in their advertisement page in the Camping and Caravan and caravan club magazines.
The product is being offered at a discount price, so why not go and have a look.
GO Outdoors is a small company that set out on a big adventure more than 40 years ago. Sheffield's 'Camping & Caravanning Centre' first opened its doors in 1969, and soon became known simply as 'CCC' to locals. CCC quickly earned a strong reputation for excellent customer service and became a landmark within Yorkshire's outdoor community.
GO Outdoors has been on this adventure for more than 40 years, and many of the team are the very same people who led CCC to success back in the 1970s and 1980s.
They are still based in Sheffield and haven't forgotten our roots, but they do have big plans for the future

The Headingley Experience
Sunday saw the Onedrywash sponsored Doncaster Knights under 10s visit Headingley stadium, they had the chance to play at half time during the Aviva Premiership game between Leeds Carnegie and London Wasps.
12 of the squad left Doncaster, just as it seemed the sun was starting to break through, but arrived at Headingley to a damp, grey autumn sky. Nothing was going to spoil this day, the boys - beaming from ear to ear made their way into the stadium, collected their commerative water bottles and headed for their seats.
With one or two notable exceptions, the boys cheered on Carnegie as they searched for their first league win of the season, and then just before half time, we found a quiet corner and prepared for our game.
Under the floodlights and on a fantastic surface, BJ led the team out onto the Headingley pitch, and the game began.
The 12 minutes we were allowed shot past, and I am not sure any of us remember much about the game except for a fabulous try from Thomas - but I do know everyone left the field with the same smile they went on with, taking time to wave to the crowd on their way off.
This was a fantastic day, enjoyed by players, parents and coaches alike. Thanks to Dave for refereeing, and to the parents for getting the boys there - but most of all to Helen and her team at Leeds Carnegie for the invite.
Lets hope the boys can carry this enthusiasm through to next weeks game against local rival Sheffield and Rotherham !!

Autumn Arrives
This morning saw the Onedrywash sponsored Doncaster Knights under 10s head out into probably our coldest morning of the year so far. a light frost overnight and the shelter from the trees made the pitch feel really cold for our last training session before our trip to Headingley next week.
We started with our time trials, which are designed to get the boys wanting to be at their sharpest for the team and introduce a bit of 'friendly' rivalry in the team.
This morning was fantastic with every body giving their all with some great results.
The whole team worked really hard on a really fresh morning, and I am looking forwards to seeing what they can produce at Headingley next weekend - good luck boys !!

Is it a bird ????
the Onedrywash sponsored Doncaster Knights under 10s are really lucky to have a great bunch of parents who follow them all over the county to watch them play and shout on their support. Sunday is never Sunday without the rumble of a Northern Irish accent from Brian shouting for Conor and the boys.
Nothing is ever too much trouble for Brian, and he faithfully rode and drove his way round the half marathon course recently to support Jo on her fundraising epic.
Not satisfied with his contribution to that cause, when asked recently to support some friends on a sponsored abseil, Brian went one further and launched himself from the top of the stand at Doncaster race course to help raise money - well done Brian, we are all very proud of you !!

A Special Day Out
In a couple of weeks, the Onedrywash sponsored Doncaster Knights under 10s will get a chance to play at half time during the Aviva Premiership game between Leeds Carnegie and London Wasps. As part of the build up, Leeds Carnegie asked BJ if he would like to be mascot for their Amlin Auropean Challenge cup game at home to Stade Francais, and siad he could take a couple of his mates for a look round.
BJ and the 2 Ols spent some time pitch side before getting the chance to rummage around the home teams dressing room and try on a couple of the players shirts. They then helped themselves to a bottle of Gatorade before heading into the tunnel to watch the build up. As SKY tv gave the go ahead, BJ was grinning from ear to ear and shaking like a leaf. Marcus Wentzel entered the tunnel and took BJ down the steps of his favourite ground and onto the Headingley pitch, and before he knew it, it was over and he headed back up the stairs.
Thanks to everyone at Headingley for a great day, the boys thoroughly enjoyed themselves, and cant wait to come back and play in a couple of weeks.
A great day for the new boys !
Sunday saw the first opportunity for the Onedrywash sponsored Doncaster Knights under 10s to field 2 teams on one day, meaning everyone was going to get a couple of games under their belts. This was a great opportunity for those who hadnt played yet, or not got much rugby under their belts to combine with some of the more experienced players and play rugby. And what a day, the blue team drew against a plucky Chesterfield, thanks to a long range try from BJ and some great tackling from Corey, Thomas and the Twins. They then went down to a competitive Selby team who set out with one intention and got their wish. It wasnt for a lack of effort from anyone in Blue, it just wasnt to be their day !
The Red team had a different challenge, they were to play back to back games against a fresh Selby team, made up of a similar mix of players, and they set about showing the blue team what rugby was all about. A great effort from Ryan in his first ever game, brought him a try, and new Scrum half Oliver drove his troops forward to earn a great draw in game one.
Game two was going the same way, lots of hard work and running before it looked like Selby were going to break free. A last ditch tackle from player of the day helped ensure a second draw - a great days rugby !
The important thing out of today was seeing everyone get a chance to play, and some of the smiles told their own story.
Back to training next week for the boys, before a trip to Headingley to play at half time in the Aviva Premiership game against London Wasps.

So Near Yet So Far
This week saw the Onedrywash sponsored Doncaster Knights under 10s, make the short trip down the M62 to Hull Ionians. Its always a tough place to go, they seem to breed giants in Humberside and the bright Sunday morning sunshine made them look even bigger !!
Nothing seemed to phase the boys today though, and they played some of the best rugby we have seen - creating solid platforms at the break down, and despite getting limited ball from the set piece - the ginats were proving hard to shift, what we did get, we moved well and the wingers saw plenty of chances to run. Despite spending most of the 2 games camped in the opposition half, we fell for the sucker pucnh a couple of times and Ionians scored on the break to take control and win the day.
We are really proud of what we acheived today, and there wont be many times we play that well and end up on the wrong end of the result. Well done everyone, especially Ben and Joe our players of the day.

Couplands Cravan Sales - A family run business
Onedrywash would like to thank all at Couplands Caravans of Louth for inviting us to demonstrate our range of products with the recently, with special thanks to Ray - the accessories manager.
Couplands are a dedicated, family run business supplying new and pre-owned caravans and motorhomes.
The companys was started back in 1975 by Peter Coupland, who began hiring out the family tourer to firends. This proved so popular he bought another van and kept building on the idea until he had 10 vans.
By this time Peter realised he needed space, and aquired a small peice of land on Louths industrial estate with a small office and workshop space for just one caravan. From this grew the business you see today.
"At Couplands Caravans we have over 30 years of knowledge and experience in the world of touring caravan sales.
Accessories and Awnings for your Caravan and Motorhome
Our shop offers an ever increasing variety of accessories designed to accommodate the needs of both the novice and the more adventurous caravanner. We sell absolute necessities as well as sheer luxuries, all at competitive prices, as well as an extensive range of awnings for every size of van. "

Show Time
Onedrywash would like to thank all at Salop Leisure for inviting us once again to their model review for next year. The annual show previewed the 2011 model range and invites were sent to all their valued customers.
Onedrywash will be on hand to demonstrate Caravan, motorhome and car cleaning kits and this year will be showing their new hibernation kit.
The show is ornganised by Salop Leisure - Emstrey, Shrewsbury, Shropshire, SY5 6DS - find them on google.
Severnside Lions Scooter Club in name has been around since 1970’s and even with the typical playing round with possible name changes that clubs seemed to toy with in the 80's our name was the one the traditionalists within Shrewsbury still stuck with. But sadly with so many clubs it was folded for the usual reasons. But like all good things Severnside Lions Scooter Club was resurrected in 1999 by a group of Scooterists that wanted to put Shrewsbury back on the scootering map. A few of the original members thrown in with some new blood gave us the club we have today. We are the typical fun loving bunch of people from all walks of life and parts of the scooter scene who enjoy what we all love Rallies, Music and of course BEER!! Some might say you have to have a sense of humour and a very thick skin to be a part of our club, but we aren't all that bad really. We meet on the last Thursday of each month at the Red Barn pub on Longden Road in Shrewsbury. We are always looking for new members who wish to be a part of club, but even if you are a member of another club but are in the area everyone is welcome to pop along for a chat and a pint or two!!

Success All Round
This weekend saw the first games for the Onedrywash sponsored Doncaster Knights under 10s, and what a start - 2 good wins and a draw which with a bit more luck could have been a win too.
The boys headed to Driffield and played against teams from Driffield, Pocklington and a mixed opposition, and despite the pouring rain, they stuck to their task and played some great rugby. There were try scorers throughout the team, and some great defensive efforts, and most importantly some great support from the parents.
Special mention to vice captain Conor who had the task of captaining the side for part of one game, and really rose to the challenge, to James, Liam, Lewi and Frazer who worked tirelessly in the forwards to give Owain and BJ plenty of ball to work the back with, and to Thomas who ran all day for the cause.
At the same time as the team was playing, Team Jo was running her first half marathon to raise money for the team - Brian followed round the course on his bike to keep Jo motivated, and Andrea, Lauren and Harriet shouted on from the sidelines. Despite the awful conditions, Jo finished in just over 2 hours raising over £300 for the team - well done and thanks Jo !!

One week and counting
A fresh autumn morning greated the Onedrywash sponsored Doncaster Knights under 10's as they entered the last Sunday session before their matches start next weekend. This morning was about getting match ready, and we spent most of the morning playing short games to put into practice the last month of training exercises.
What a great session, everyone stepped up to the plate, BJ looked to be recovering some form after injury with a hatful of tries, Thomas was back running and tackling like we know he can and Liam was charging round like trojan horse - must have been the new boots !!!! - he was rewarded with player of the day.
Next week sees the team make the trip up to Driffield, and we are all really looking forwards to getting stuck in - although part of us will be thinking about Jo on her fundraising Half Marathon - Good Luck from all of us.

Wet Weather Training
As the start of the match playing season approaches,the Onedrywash sponsored Doncaster Knights under 10s, are still working hard to be ready. Sunday saw us doing our fitness tests again with almost everyone improving on the times they had set a couple of weeks ago. Well done everyone, only a couple of weeks and we will really start to see the rewards I am sure.
As the start of the season approaches, the team have chosen their captains for this season, and they are :
BJ - now enetering his 4th season as captain. He is recovering nicely from his broken collar bone and hopes to be fit for our first game. BJ is a huge Leeds Rhinos fan and hopes one day his beloved South Standers are copying the song of his hero Brent Webb - ' Ben Howe is Superman!'.
Ol C - for the second season will be the Vice Captain to BJ. The pair are great mates and work really hard together. Ol loves his sport and is a huge fan of Sheffield Steelers Ice Hockey team - stick to the rugby mate, it looks much safer to me !
Conor - was voted to join the team this year, and brings a forwards opinion to the party. Conor Loves his rugby and would rather be playing with his mates or watching some rugby than anything else.
Good luck to all the team this season - why not follow us on Twitter (@Donny Knights).

Stepping Up The Training
Sunday 12th September
Sunday was week 2 of training for the Onedrywash sponsored Doncaster Knights under 10s, and with yet more new faces joining the squad, there was going to be a lot to cover. First things first, the boys were issued with their new Onedrywash sponsored training kits, and once again they turned heads as they left the dressing room. This years training kit also carries the logo of CLAPA - the cleft lip and palate association, and there will be more news on the teams links with them over the next few week.
For the first time this season, the 'donkeys' headed off for some scrummaging and line out practice, and the 'girls' went off to compare new boots and do a bit of passing practice. It is always difficult for any new player, especially coming into an established squad, but couple that with the daft rules of having to run forwards and pass backwards, and this is a difficult game for anyone to master - But by the end of the session, we had a game of semi contact rugby, that started to resemble the real thing - we are on our way !!
Well done to everyone for working so hard, and especially Owain - our player of the week.

A Run in the Sun
This morning saw the Onedrywash sponsored Doncaster Knights under 10’s return to full training in the build up to their first game in October. It was like we had never been away, the boys were there bright and early and hit the field ready to train. Todays aim was to blow away the cobwebs, and we set about 90 minutes of running, more running and a bit more running, and rounded off the day with the first time trials of the season, with the boys recording times for 10m, 20m, 40m sprints and a 3 lap run.
It was a great session, enjoyed by all – and we welcomed 3 new faces to the team.
This is an important season for the boys, as we move ever closer to the ‘big pitch’ , the game moves one step closer to the one they watch their heroes play on TV.
The boys are back and raring to go – watch this space to see the new kit unveiled and news on the teams charity work for this season.
If you cant wait that long, why not keep up to date on Twitter? @DonnyKnights10s

Another chapter in the Knights' tale
Thursday saw the team have one of their now famous summer get togethers, but
with only a month to go, the real work started!!
with only a month to go, the real work started!!
and so it begins ...
The boys were put through their paces for over an hour, and miraculously were all still standing at the end (or at least crawling!!). The key to success is team work followed closely by fitness, and these session are designed to work on both of these. With Captain BJ joining in for the first time since breaking his collar bone a month ago, he lead the team through their running drills, before bowing out as it got more 'physical'.
The boys looked in good shape and certainly good spirits, heres to another great season - good luck boys!

The continuing story of Jo's fundraising marathon
Giving a junior rugby team a season full of exciting new experiences, kitting them out and touring all costs money! Whilst we really appreciate the support we get from Onedrywash, we never take it for granted. With that in mind Jo has set about raising as much as she can for the team with a summer full of running.
Wednesday night saw the annual Doncaster road race, and yet another challenge for Jo - and one she rose to, setting a personal best time over the testing 5k course. Thanks to everyone who has sponsored Jo so far; we are now over £200 and still got the half marathon to go - good luck Jo!!
The story doesn't end there. Loz, BJ and Joe were joined by friends, Dan and Romany, to take on the 1 mile fun run and all did really well, managing to drag the 'enthusiastic' Brian round too!
Thanks again to Ian, Ol and Harriet who yet again turned up to support!
If you want to offer your support to the team, please do not hesitate to get in touch.

World’s First Natural Non-Toxic Water Steriliser Now Available
Up to now, all water sterilisers on the market have been toxic. Onepure Water Steriliser by SJK Products is totally natural and non-toxic and carries NO health warnings.
Crawley, West Sussex – SJK Products Ltd today launched the latest in their range of environmentally-friendly and health-focused products; the totally natural and non-toxic water steriliser: Onepure Water Steriliser.
Water sterilising products on the market, up to now, such as sterilising tablets or sterilising fluids - used by mothers to sterilise baby’s bottle and on boats and caravans to make drinking water ‘safe’ - are made from household bleach which is held together as crystals by salt.
Yet bleach - sodium hypochlorite – is a known carcinogen (cancer inducing substance) and existing water sterilising tablets and fluids carry health warnings accordingly, as follows: ‘Corrosive’, ‘Irritant’, ‘Oxidising’, ‘Harmful’, and they are also dangerous for the environment. There is a chemical alternative to chlorine - Hydrogen peroxide - which is where the term ‘peroxide blondes’ comes from. It is also used as rocket fuel. Yet here in Europe, people add it to their drinking water; it is deemed “not fit for human consumption” in the USA.
Onepure Water Steriliser is a new, inexpensive and natural alternative, made from Seville orange pith, olives and tree bark. It is both tasteless and non toxic and delivers purified drinking water for less than 1p per litre, which compares very well with bottled water. Onepure has been tested and proven as stable i.e. contaminated water remains in perfect drinking condition for not less than 28 days. With chlorine-based products, the water remains stable for only 4-6 hours.
The fact that Onepure Water Steriliser is not chemical based (unlike existing products) is very good news for asthma sufferers because the link between exposure to chlorine and asthma, especially among young children, is now well established. Chlorine-based chemicals also damage on-board water pumps by corroding their seals. Onepure Water Steriliser not only purifies, but it is also softens the water, preventing the build up of scale in water heater systems. So an added benefit of using Onepure Water Steriliser on boats, trains, caravans, motorhomes and aeroplanes etc is a significant reduction in maintenance costs.
Tim Jones, SJK Products’ chairman, summarises Onepure Water Steriliser’s benefits:
“Onepure’s water purifier is unique because it:
• Is only made from natural ingredients.
• Keeps water systems sterilised and the water purified for up to 28 days, continuously, once treated.
• Kills 99.98% of known germs and viruses.
• Can be safely used in water tanks in caravans and boats etc, for purifying hikers' water bottles and for sterilising babies’ bottles, dummies and plastic toys.
• Breaks down and prevents future growth of harmful biofilm and germs in the tank, pipes, pumps and filters of water systems - thereby extending their life and reducing maintenance costs.
Existing water sterilising products may contain:
• Chlorine - a known carcinogen which takes 4-6 hours to break down.
• Hydrogen Peroxide – used to bleach the hair of ‘peroxide blondes; as rocket fuel, and deemed “Not fit for human consumption” in the USA.
• Other chemicals (such as iodine), some of which leave a nasty aftertaste or have to be neutralised with yet more chemicals.”

Congratulations from the Knights
Saturday 10th July saw some of the team and coaches head off to celebrate the wedding of Sarah and Andy - 2 of our band of vocal followers!
We had a great evening, and it was good to see the boys never missing a chance with a game of rugby taking place in the gardens using a teddy bear!!
Thomas looked very smart for the occasion despite tearing his trousers, and he managed to keep his audience amused for the entire day!!
Congratulations to Sarah and Andy from everyone at the Knights and best wishes for the future.

Girls do their bit for the team
Sunday 4th July saw the annual Jane Tomlinson Leeds 10k road race, drawing competitors from all over the country including a heavily pregnant Paula Radcliffe, Joe Swash, Gemma Atkinson and Emmerdale's very own ‘Eric Pollard’!
In it together
Jo and Sharon headed to Leeds to compete and raise money for their chosen beneficiaries – Jo has been running a series of races this summer to raise money for the rugby team, and having already completed her first off road race with the Sandall Beat 10k in Doncaster, it was time for race 2.
The girls met eagerly at 7:45am in the hotel, with their personal bag men (Mick and Mark) and headed for the start. Once the girls were safely delivered, the boys headed to McDonald's for a well deserved breakfast before beginning their zig-zag across the city to support the girls along the route.
Joined by Ian and his family, we all took up position by the finishing straight and waited for the girls – first we saw a heavily pregnant Paula Radcliffe, then a couple of smurfs, a clown, a couple of other celebrities, then through the crowd we saw Jo, she managed to give the cheering kids a wave as she passed us by. Then we saw a shark, big bird, a limping ‘Eric Pollard’ and over the hill came a ‘smiling’ Sharon – great news we were all in time for lunch !!
Thanks to the girls for their efforts – and don’t forget Jo is planning to do the Doncaster town centre 5k and a half marathon later in the year to continue raising money so its not too late to sponsor her.

Introducing Mark Howe - UK Sales Manager, Onedrywash
Mark Howe, UK Sales Manager, Onedrywash
My role is to look after our existing customers and further develop our relationships with them, whilst searching our new potential markets and growing the business in those areas. As this business develops, it is hoped I will be able to develop a sales team to support this.
Having qualified in IT at DeMontfort University in Leicester, I did the honourable thing and tried a career in IT at the British Library. It didn't take long for me to realise that I wasn't going to fit in with the IT crowd, so I headed for the sales world. Having cut my teeth as a door to door insurance salesman, I soon joined the world of Reg Vardy in car sales - not a bad job if you like 7 days a week, 12 plus hours a day and limited holidays. I went on to join Andrew Page selling parts to the motor industry before joining Pro-Align as a sales manager for garage equipment. 11 years ago I joined Autoglass as a business manager, I went on to spend time running branches - winning manager of the year, before becoming part of the
team that set up a specialist repair business within Autoglass. That's where I first met SJ, and some would say it was only a matter of time. None of my colleagues were really surprised when I announced that I would be joining Onedrywash.
Outside work, my family is very important to me. I have been married to Jo for almost 13 years and have 2 wonderful children - Lauren who is almost 12 and Ben who is 9. Any spare time not taken up running the kids to their various clubs and activities is taken up with rugby. I coach at Doncaster Knights and help out with the local school team as well as being a season ticket holder at Leeds Rhinos.

Pooleys - Official distributors of Onedrywash Aircraft Cleaning Kit
Onedrywash are proud to anounce Pooleys as official distributors for the aviation version of their waterless cleaning product.
Product details taken from the Pooleys website:
The unique, eco friendly way to drywash and polish your aircraft.
Onedrywash was created to wash aircraft in the desert and apply a polish which increases fuel efficiency. Now it enables you to fly around your aircraft and leave it spotless. It effortlessly cleans all surfaces - bodywork, alloys, plastic, chrome and glass.
You simply spray on, gently wipe in and allow to dry for a few seconds or minutes (depending on the temperature) then wipe off with a second clean cloth. While the spray is drying, it lifts the dirt and grime from the bodywork and suspends it in the drying liquid. When you wipe it off, the dirt and grime doesn't touch the bodywork so it leaves no scratches or marks. All you are left with is a layer of polish and a clean, shiny aircraft.
Onedrywash isn't just easy to use, it's easy on the environment too. Because it uses no water, you're not extracting 170 litres of drinking water out of your nearest reservoir every time you wash your aircraft. Nor are you washing harmful soaps and suds back into the river system.
Drywash for up to 4 planes.
AIRCRAFT CLEANING KIT CONTAINS:
1. 500ml Onedrywash
2. Microfibre cloths x 2
3. Latex gloves x 2
