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

Knights invade York

Doncaster Knights under 9’s

Sunday saw the Onedrywash and Autoglass® sponsored Doncaster Knights under 9’s head up the A19 to York for another festival of rugby. This was a great chance to challenge ourselves against new opposition with teams travelling from Cheshire , Lancashire and beyond. And challenged we were, the first game saw the team draw with a strong Chester team and despite loosing their captain at half time to a Knee injury, the boys battled away and conceded a late try for the draw.

Between games, the boys decided they could take on the world, and boosted by the recovery of captain BJ, the team threw everything at the rest of the day. Unfortunately there were some really strong teams on display, and the knights despite 100% effort from everyone just failed to make the knock out stages of the festival. The lads were gutted at first, but a reminder from the coaches about the rules of the team soon saw everyone with a smile back on their faces and remembering what a great day playing rugby they had had.

This is a team who are building in confidence every week, and learning their craft. They will go on to have some great times together and who knows they may even pick up a trophy or two along the way, and some of them may grace out TV screens in years to come – Well done boys – Keep up the hard work !!

Knights continue their winning ways


As was always the plan this season, the Onedrywash and Autoglass® sponsored Doncaster Knights under 9’s have worked very hard at the transition from TAG to contact rugby. There was never a rush to ‘win games at any cost’, we wanted to make sure the boys got to grips with the game step by step, and despite the weather since Christmas, that plan is coming to fruition with the side undefeated in the second half of the season so far.

Owain gets his instructions from the sideline

Sunday saw the visit of Old Brodlians to the castle, and the Knights wasted no time in putting them to the sword racing into an early lead with almost the first play of the game. The team worked really hard and pressured Old Brods into mistake after mistake allowing them to kick on for a great win. Player of the day – Scrum half Ol really directed his troops and with a couple of tries to his name took the game by the scruff of the neck. Captain BJ and the rest of his backs line put into practice what they have been learning, and managed to keep the scoreboard ticking over for an impressive win.

Ol encourages the ref!

Game 2 saw a complete change of playing personnel for the Knights and a renewed enthusiasm from Old Brods, but some determined running from Conor and aggressive ‘wrestling’ from Fraser saw the knights hang in there until game 2 captain Joe popped up on the wing to race in for a try to tie up the game.

Clear the way - Conor on the move!

This was a fantastic day for the team – showing how focussed they have remained throughout the long winter – well done boys – keep it up!!

Cold Weather Training for the Knights

.
Sunday 31st January saw all games called off for the Autoglass® and Onedrywash® sponsored Doncaster Knights under 9’s, but not to be out smarted by the weather, the team found a spare bit of land behind the pitches and spent a couple of hours running through their drills. Plenty of passing, running, lineouts, and break down practice was the order of the day.

Cold weather training!

Thanks to everyone who was able to make it; here’s hoping the weather improves this week so we can get some practice before our second trip to Leeds Carnegie this season.

The Sponsors come to visit

Ben applauds man of the match Jack

One Drywash and Autoglass®-sponsored Doncaster Knights under 9’s match report

Sunday saw SJ make one of his now famous waterlogged trips North. Everytime he has been to see the boys over the last couple of seasons, it has rained, been cold and generally very unwelcoming!

Fear not – the boys decided to make it a day to remember, and with the visit of Sheffield Tigers who act as a feeder club to the first team, they set about putting the many pieces of the jigsaw together all in one game. All season, we have done different things really well as a team, but today – as if to honour the water logged SJ, the boys put everything together in one game, and it was fabulous to watch.

Eventual player of the week – Jack - scored his first, and then second tries of the season.

Jack finally crosses the line

Top Tackler, Dan, lead by example. Harry and Lewi celebrated their birthdays with a massive effort for the team, and the Captain himself – BJ, seems to be settling into his new role at Stand Off, and at last finding some space to open the backs up for a run.

BJ tiptoes through the land of the giants!

Thomas (pictured below) is so used to beating opposition players, he has now mastered it with his eyes shut!

He's so good, Thomas can do it with his eyes closed

It was a cold, wet and muddy day for everyone, particularly our visitor from the South, but we were all warmed through by this massive effort from the boys, who never once moaned about the conditions, and did everything that was asked of them. Days like this are what rugby is made of, and we, as coaches, were proud to be a part of it.

Well done boys !!

A day in the country

.
Thomas checks the grounding!

KICKABOUT!

Conor hangs on

BJ launches his back line

Sunday saw the One Drywash and Autoglass®-sponsored Doncaster Knights under 9’s head out to the countryside with a first-ever trip to Market Rasen.

Having squeezed into the smallest changing room on record, the boys couldn’t wait to get out into the country air and get stuck in. After a thorough warm up, the boys set about trying to overturn the unwanted record of losing the first game each week! Last week's training really looked to have paid off as the forwards set about doing the work that had earned them the nickname of the ‘donkies’ and they worked hard to secure plenty of ball to make the backs look good and, but for a couple of missed tackles, the knights gave their best performance of the season but were once again just edged out.

We made several changes for the second game, including some positional ones but were able to pick up where we left off, and for the first time this season, we rolled the ball through several phases and took the lead in a game.

Not for long though. As the boys were still patting each other on the back and enjoying their moment, the Rasen boys picked up the tempo and again a couple of missed tackles cost the Knights. The game continued to go back and forth, but some excellent handling and brilliant running saw Conor go close, before Thomas ran almost onto the next door pitch to score and secure another game-2 win.

Next week sees the visit of Sheffield Tigers to Castle Park and I know we are all looking forward to more of the great attacking play we saw today, especially as SJ is coming to watch!! Well done to everyone, and a special mention to Thomas as top tackler, Conor as top metre maker, Owain for an outstanding effort for the team and BJ who was player of the week.

Good luck for next week boys.

Auto Express: Seven ways to stay green

.

http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/products/products/244912/seven_ways_to_stay_green.html

"1) Clean your car more efficiently

Eco warriors hate to see water wasted – and if you wash your car regularly, thousands of litres end up going down the drain every year.

There are alternatives, though, such as OneDryWash. This no-rinse formula is simply sprayed on to the bodywork, spread around and then wiped off with a clean cloth – not a drop of water is required!"

Knights update

.
Stand clear - forwards on the loose!

Ease up Jack, I'm on your side!

Sunday was due to see the One Drywash and Autoglass®-sponsored Doncaster Knights under 9’s take on big local rivals Rotherham Titans in an attempt to overturn the first team's narrow loss the previous day. Unfortunately, the Titans were unable to field a team, and the Knights got the opportunity to take on a tough training session under the autumn sun.

Whilst the boys love to play, it is important during this massive year of transition that they get the chance to work on the new skills without the pressure of an opposition, and that’s exactly what we did.

Today was about getting the team working for each other, understanding more about the different roles of forwards and backs – the main one being the pretty coloured boots and the great looking hair sported by most of the backs, as opposed to the up and at ‘em mentality of the forwards.

We spent the morning looking at how the forwards could win, steal, and/or secure ball and give the backs the best opportunity to show their lovely boots to the crowd as they ran past. We included a couple of the Rotherham players who had turned up, and they introduced some exciting new thoughts which helped the Knights fire up. After an hour, we re-introduced the backs to the forwards, and ran through some game scenarios. The forwards rucked and mauled for all their worth, and the backs had space to run and let the wind whistle through their flowing locks.

Fraser celebrates his Player of the Day Award with a small blackcurrant!

This was an important session for the boys in terms of understanding the differences in the roles but more importantly how they fit together on game day, and we as coaches were really proud of their achievements.

Bring on game day next week so we can put it into practice.

Well done boys

Remembrance Sunday at Castle Park

.
Lest we forget....

Sunday saw the One Drywash and Autoglass®-sponsored Doncaster Knights under 9’s host local rivals, Sheffield. The boys started with a minute's silence at 11am and a moment to remember those who have given their lives for our country.

Once the game got started, Doncaster did their best to hold onto a free-flowing hard-running Sheffield side, but seemed to come off second best in contact, and the one-man breaks from a very experienced looking scrum half were hard to track. Credit to the boys though; they battled right the way to the end of the game and gave their all for the cause.

Strictly Come Rugby!

The coaches spent some time talking about working as a team, and the pride of walking from the field with their heads held high, and being able to say they had given their all. We then made some changes and set about the task. The boys worked tirelessly and not for the first time this season (infact it's becoming a weekly event!!), the boys turned the defeat around, and the all-winning Sheffield side were held to their first draw of the season. The boys played with real passion and worked for each other, and it was great to see Ethan stand tall as player of the day, having rucked and mauled his way to near exhaustion !!!!

The effort from everyone in and around the team is really starting to pay off, and I am really proud to say I have been a part of the boys' development until now – good luck boys; keep working hard.

Winter rugby at last !

.
Get off me foot !!

Oh no you dont !!

World Gnome fishing championships - Hull 2009

We have been spoilt so far this season, playing deep into October in fabulous sunshine and balmy temperatures. But Sunday saw the first Winter rugby for the season, and for many of our new players, yet another step in their long rugby roads!

We headed down the M62 to Hull Ionians, and after 30 minutes in the dressing rooms, we decided we could hide no more and headed out on our expedition to the pitches. Not sure whether to run, paddle or swim, the boys reluctantly headed out. We had a good warm up and, despite the weather, we looked promising with some really slick handling – always a worry to the coaches when we look this good in warm up!

Eventually, Hull found their way to the pitch and we got started on the first of our 2 games for the day. The boys worked really hard and played exactly how they had been taught; just a shame that the opposition, and at times the referee, seemed to be playing a different game! It was a very physical and a very wet game, and I am only glad it wasn’t my turn to wash the shirts this week!

The boys battled well and kept plugging to the end, but weren’t really given the space to play by a ‘keen’ Hull side on a very small pitch, and we came off second best.

With water in places not to be mentioned, it would have been easy to call it a day and head back to the warm, but after a short huddle together, most of the knees had stopped knocking and the teeth stopped chattering so we decided to give it another go! This time, we offered to referee and the boys slotted back into the routine they know best – knocking down the big men and running hard and straight at the opposition. Some great team work and good passing saw the Onedrywash and Autoglass®-sponsored Knights under 9’s record another great victory and, for the second game in a row, turn defeat into victory against a powerful opposition. It was an outstanding effort by everyone, with the pieces of the jigsaw slowly starting to come together – watch this space!

Well done to 'Player of the Day': Oliver, 'Most Effort for the Team': Luis, 'Top Metre Maker': Thomas and 'Top Tackler': BJ.

Here’s hoping for less rain next week and a chance to show off some of those great skills.

SJK Products Launches Onedrywash for Caravans and Onedrywash for Motorhomes

.
Two new special formulas of Onedrywash, the revolutionary waterless vehicle washing and polishing system – one for caravans and one for motorhomes – will soon be available from SJK Products

Crawley, West Sussex – SJK Products Ltd, manufacturers of the revolutionary waterless spray on, wipe off vehicle washing system, Onedrywash, announced today two new products: Motorhome Onedrywash and Caravan Onedrywash.

The Motorhome Onedrywash label

Up to now, SJK Products has only catered, specifically, for the car with its original product, Motorcar Onedrywash. But now its new products, Motorhome Onedrywash and Caravan Onedrywash are both specially formulated, as the name would suggest, for motorhomes and caravans.

The Caravan Onedrywash label

Tim Jones, SJK’s chairman, explains how these new products differ from the original: “We’ve made the product stronger so it can cope with the harsher environments that motorhome and caravan owners tend to find themselves in. It gets rid of black streaks effectively, it’s great on acrylic windows with no smearing and it can also be used on alloy wheels because it is non-aggressive.”

Onedrywash has always been popular among owners of caravans and motorhomes due to the freedom that the product gives them to be able to clean their vehicles wherever they like, rather than only where they can find a source of water. In fact, Onedrywash is now sold at over 100 caravan sites throughout the UK. Site wardens regularly request a Onedrywash product, specially formulated for caravans and motorhomes. Now SJK Products has responded with exactly that.

The SJK Products team will be providing a sneak preview of both products at International Caravan & Motorhome 2009, NEC, 13th-18th October 2009 on the Towsure stand. The two new products, priced at £10.99 for Motorhome Onedrywash and also £10.99 for Caravan Onedrywash, will be publicly available from 1st November 2009.

About Onedrywash
Onedrywash, manufactured by SJK Products Ltd in Crawley, West Sussex, UK, is a totally waterless washing system – a revolutionary way to both clean and polish one’s car, caravan, boat, motorbike, or any other metal, glass, or painted surface - with only a single application of the product. It prevents pollutants and detergents from entering the river system and each bottle (7 washes) saves 1 ton of water, so it’s good news for the environment. The product was endorsed by South East Water in 2006 and was awarded the prestigious Waterwise Marque in 2007 for its contribution towards saving water in the UK. It is available from Amazon and Autoglass who also use it to valet their clients’ vehicles. The company, SJK Products, was co-founded in 2004 by SJ Khebbal, CEO and Tim Jones, Chairman. http://www.onedrywash.com

Junior rugby: preparations for the new season

.
Up, up and away!

2 weeks and counting

This week saw the half way point in the preparations for the new season for the Onedrywash and Autoglass®-sponsored Doncaster Knights Under 9’s. This was the start of week 3 of our 4-week preparations, and we are officially a rugby team !! We played our first practice match, 15 minutes of tackling, banging, boshing, scrummaging and organized chaos.

As head coach, it’s a nervous time, but this was 15 minutes of real rugby, of some slick passing, excellent support play and top tries. I have never felt more confident that, as a team, we will be ready for our first outing at Headingley on October 4th. The effort and development of the players has been fantastic, and the support for the coaching team from parents has been brilliant – thanks !!

Come here!

Next weekend will see our last 2 sessions, and we will be pushing towards a full practice match. Keep up the hard work boys – good luck from the coaching team.

Well done to this week's player of the week – seen below directing his troops – captain BJ, and newcomer, Jack, who was rewarded for his efforts with the prestigious ‘Most Effort for the Team’ award.

That way!

Onedrywash announces the new 'retailer locator'

.
Because SJ has been doing such a good job with finding new Onedrywash retailers, the list on the site was getting too long to manage, so this wonderful new 'retailer locator' has been added to make it easier to find caravan and camping sites that sell Onedrywash products. I mean, who would want to stay anywhere else, right?

Onedrywash is the New Name for International Leading Brand of Waterless Carwash Product

.
One product, one process, Onedrywash – is the new name for the waterless carwash product (formerly known as Miracle Drywash)

Crawley, West Sussex – SJK Products Ltd officially announced today the new name it has chosen for its leading waterless carwash product, formerly known as Miracle Drywash. The rebranded product is now called “Onedrywash”.

New label design for Onedrywash for cars

There were several reasons for the name change; Tim Jones, company chairman explains: “Why ‘Onedrywash’? Well, it’s the number one waterless carwash product, now used throughout Autoglass’s 400 UK outlets and by Gate Aviation on its cars and buses in an increasing number of UK airports. Onedrywash also has an expanding network of international distributors in places as far afield as Scandinavia, Dubai and Australia as well as a vast and ever-expanding network of resellers throughout the UK.”

A bottle of the new-look Onedrywash – no water required

A major benefit of the product that, until now, was not reflected in its name was the fact that, in one go, you can clean and polish your car at the same time with no need to wet it before you start, nor rinse after cleaning (both very wasteful of water), nor wax afterwards. “We’ve come up with a new by-line that says it all,” adds Jones, “One product, one process, Onedrywash and no water required.”

Under 9's do their bit

A day out with the first team

Saturday saw the first public outing of the new Autoglass and Onedrywash-sponsored Doncaster Knights' first team players to promote rugby in the local area. So BJ, Oliver and Aaron decided to show them how it was done. After a slow first hour, the boys grabbed a first team player each and dragged them to meet their public!! A charming smile and the bribe of chocolate from some of the players saw the boys signing up members of the public to come and watch the first team play, and more importantly telling the world about junior rugby.

If we can carry this enthusiasm onto the pitch next season, we will be world beaters – well done boys!!
