Rebels badly need new younger members and are inviting them to come along on Sunday week for their next home match against Kesgrave (3pm).
No experience of the sport is necessary and further indication of the need for new faces was obvious when Rebels went down 78-64 in their latest home match with Norwich's Long Stratton Cars.
Wakering started well and they took an early lead before falling behind by a couple of points. However, the Long Stratton heat leaders were vastly more experienced than many of the Rebels, three of whom are in their first season.
This factor eventually gave Cats the advantage and ultimately victory.
