Maybe the youngest Western Force member

[The EnForcer]

When purchasing my membership for the Force I bought one for my wife and two others under my name for guests. However, when it came to processing the applications I was told I could not have the additional memberships under my own name. So, I gave one membership my dogs name, Diesel, and the other to my son's, not at that time born, MacGregor. He is now 5 months old and I'm guessing he's the youngest Force member.

What I would like to do is get a size 0 shirt signed by the inaugural team to have framed with his membership card as a bit of a memento. Does anybody know how I could have this done? I suspect there are a lot of people trying to do similar things and maybe for monetary gain....obviously no monetary gain involved in this. Just a father trying to steer his son towards the great game.... god I hope he doesn't become a ballet dancer.

Go the Force and bring it on Scotland

Aww that's so sweet.

I'd e-mail the WARU people (I'm sure there's an e-mail on their website somewhere) and tell them what you want, I'm pretty sure they'd help you out.

Alternativly there are usually open training sessions and fan days through the season where you can get signings done.

I think an email in the first place is a good move, the media department even? Tell them your the story, could be a good PR thing for them too. It would look good in a newspaper I would think?

What is your sons birthdate?

Definately go the way of email. point out that you have no intension of on selling the shirt. Nor will they ever find it on ebay. Having been involved in fund raising ventures clubs of all codes are hesitant in providing autographs to everyone that asks.

So if they do so no - that would be there number 1 reason why.

hang on, why say uk? is it not scotland you are supposed to be born in?

english...well after all scotland is "part" of england due to the acts of union 1707, and scotland still sing gstq as the official anthem and flower of scotland. Contradictory is it not.

Ahem, we are straying from the subject matter somewhat my friend, however more than willing to continue this debate elsewhere......by the by my buttons are not really that easily pushed!

Coach, he was born on the 3rd of September.

No reply on the signed shirt for my baby boy yet but I just e-mailed them again, 4 times. I'll get it one way or another. I'm not the EnForcer for nothing

[Sagerian]

Call them if e-mail fails.

They just responded saying that my request was in the system but they are a wee bit busy on tour at the moment......it was a very nice reply I must say.
