Bullying behaviour happens face to face and online and can include:

Being called names, being teased or made fun of
Being hit, pushed or kicked
Having your belongings taken or damaged
Being ignored, left out, or having rumours spread about you in
Being humiliated
Receiving abusive messages or having nasty comments made about you online
Being targeted because of who you are or how people see you

Bonnyrigg Rose Community Football Club a long established and trusted brand in our Community and as a SFA Platinum Quality Mark Club knew that identifying, proving and demonstrating the value of the benefits our football club provided has not always been so easy.

The UEFA GROW SROI Model has been developed in response to this challenge. The SROI model supported by an Advisory Panel of academics from more than ten European Universities and a range of football industry and nongovernmental body experts establishes the impact that mass participation in football has across a spectrum of economic, health and social outcomes. In turn, this has enabled a monetary value to be placed on people’s regular participation in the game at national, regional and club levels.

2004’s Tom Wilson Memorial Winners

Our 2004 Age Group took centre stage at New Dundas Park and didn’t disappoint the large home crowd to run out 5-1 winners against Eyemouth United.

The home team dominated the first half but found the visitors stuffy in defence and it took a magnificent 25 yard strike into the top right hand corner to see the Rose into the interval leading 1 nil.

Whatever James, Franny and Kev said to the lads at half time it certainly worked as the boys went quickly about their work racing into a 5 nil lead with Eyemouth scoring a late consolation.

Huge thanks to Charlie Kirkwood and the Committee for allowing the use of the park which as always was in magnificent condition and added hugely to the occasion for the boys.

The 2004’s now have ironically a repeat fixture away to Eyemouth this weekend where a win for the Rose will see the boys complete a League and Cup Double…
