Message from our club Honorary President Mr.
Ray Scrafton
I would like to extend a very warm welcome to
players, officials and sponsors visiting Leeds Corinthians RUFC
website.
It made me very proud when Peter Hallas asked
me to be his vice president and then to become president of
Leeds Corinthians. When I came here from the Yorkshire Copper
Works I was made very welcome and I knew straight away that
this was the only club for me.
I would like to make a special welcome to our
new head coach Roger Daniel and wish him every success in the
coming season. It is good news for the club that Neil Haywood
will be 1st team captain again for the new season, as I think
that 1st team will have a very good season and hopefully will
be challenging for promotion.
Dave Murray, as my vice captain will be helping
me with the 2nd team and with all our years of experience and
knowledge we should be onto a winner. I would also like to thank
Nigel Foster and Ian Welldon for bringing us some of their players
through from the junior ranks to play open age rugby for the
first time and I wish them all the best.
We begin this season with high hopes of cup and
league success. All we want from the players in the 1st and
2nd team is commitment to training and playing
Last but not least I would also like to give special
thanks to the Management Committee, bar and kitchen staff for
all of their continued hard work.
