Ealing Trailfinders Academy have today announced the addition of 1st XV Pro Squad player Rhys Crane to the coaching team.
Rhys joined the club last season and finished up as top try scorer with 10 tries, he joined from London Welsh where he made 20 Aviva Premiership appearances. His previous clubs include Bath and Sale Sharks as well as being capped for England 7s.
On making the announcement, Academy Director John Lacey said “We are really excited at the prospect of Rhys joining the team, he is looking to develop his coaching alongside his full time playing commitments and the benefits of a current professional working with our young players is priceless. The boys will be able to see just what it takes to make the top grade in terms of skill development, time management and career planning as well as bringing fresh ideas to the coaching group. We’d also like to thank Ben Ward for allowing Rhys to work with us.”
Rhys will be straight to work next week helping prepare the side for the Royal Navy fixture on Sunday 6th November in Portsmouth.
