The new coaching team is now in place and working with both the First Team Squad and Development Squad. On Tuesday evenings both squads work together on conditioning, Core skills and unit skills. On Thursday evenings both squads train together with team runs against each other. Last night (Thursday 15th November) we had two full teams running against each other (non contact) which was great to see. If you wish to be involved please contact me on 07799115822.

The new Coaching Team is in place:

Nick Warren - Director of Rugby

Alex Dodge - Backs Coach/Team Run Coach

Eddie Ambrose - Scrum/Forward Coach

Rob Anderson - Skills Coach/Development Team Coach

Ray(Razor)Steadman Team Admin/4th Offical

Alex Dodge is a former Nottingham player who played for Barking last season. 'Dodgey' has an outstanding knowledge of the game and is able to communicate well with the players.

Eddie Ambrose is a stalwart of Barking Rugby Club and is respected in all quarters. Eddie also has a great knowledge of the game and is developing the forwards well.

Rob is currently involved with Essex U20s and is a very good young coach with a great future in the game. Rob is great around the players and is developing some good core skills with the younger players.

I hope to make another announcement soon on the coaching team
