[Grounds Management Association @wearetheGMA]

We joined Ian, Regional Pitch Advisor (Rugby Union – North) at @wirralrfc to conduct a #PitchPower report.

Watch to see how the pitches have improved over the years, thanks to Ian's knowledge, advice and awareness of relevant funding grants available to the club 👇

Craig continued: “He will be a huge loss to the club but as we do every time we lose a player, we have a conveyor belt of talent ready to fill their role. It’s another example of the great work being done by the pathway to have another player head-hunted by a Championship club.”

[Wirral RFC @WirralRFC]

It is with mixed emotions that the club say goodbye to our 1XV scrumhalf Tom Akehurst, who is making the step up into the Championship after being approached by Caldy RFC and agreeing to sign.

[Wirral RFC @WirralRFC]

Head coach Craig Harvey said, “Tom is an outstanding talent and I know a lot of teams in our league will be glad to see the back of him. He deserves his opportunity and I’m sure he will take it."
