12/06 Mike Marchant still a key man at Newbury

June 12, 2009

Following a report in the Newbury Weekly News I would like to clarify the position of Mike Marchant.

Mike has for a number of years helped Newbury Rugby Club develop rugby talent. Mike has brought to the club several players who have gone on to play 1st XV rugby for Newbury. Mike is very committed to his role at Newbury.

We asked Mike earlier in the year to continue and enhance his role with the club’s development team and he will be working with Andy Widdop on developing players both home grown Newbury boys and lads from the surrounding area.

During his time with us Mike has always continued to have other rugby interests and we are delighted that he is taking a role at Winchester, this role will not interfere with his commitment to the development squad on a Tuesday.

Mike brings to the club a depth of rugby knowledge and is a great sounding board for all of us involved with 1st XV rugby as well as his direct involvement with developing talent. Our relationship with him and our commitment to player development is as strong as ever.

Regards
Julian Lewis
