WARRINGTON RUFC are back in training in preparation for a tough season in North One West.

Led by senior coaches Andy Roberts and Jon Callendar, assisted by specialist coaches Tony Fretwell (skills) and Nigel Bradford (scrummaging), the Walton Lea Road squad meet every Tuesday and Thursday at Bridgewater School from 7pm.

Although at this stage fitness is a main priority, training sessions are encompassing all aspects of play and regularly attracting more than players.

Roberts said: “We finished fourth in the league last year and we are now aiming to better that.

“I am encouraged by the enthusiasm being shown by the lads and by the number of new players we are seeing at every session.

“Hopefully last season’s success will attract even more new players to the club. All are welcome.”
