Rotherham United midfielder Matt Crooks has very kindly volunteered to be the next guest speaker to talk at the RUDSA (Rotherham United Disabled Supporters’ Association) AGM meeting and share his own experiences with disabilities.
The group are set to host their next meeting online via Microsoft Teams on Tuesday 10th November 2020 from 6:30pm until 7:30pm, with Saturday’s match-winner Matt joining the group by video link from home.
The group are receiving ongoing support from Rotherham United and Level Playing Field as they look to expand following their formation a couple of seasons ago. In addition to this, they have been backed by the club itself and its Community Sports Trust as RUDSA continues to enhance its reputation in the local community.
The RUDSA aims to ensure that disabled supporters are able to enjoy the best matchday experience possible at the AESSEAL New York Stadium, through continued dialogue with Rotherham United. The group also aims to provide opportunities for our disabled fans to meet socially, and it is our plan to hold at least four meetings annually.
Group membership is open to anyone that is or has been affected by any disability or long-term illness and their carers, and the group are keen for as many people as possible to join.
We look forward to having an enjoyable and informative night on Tuesday and hope you will join us.
