Raiders’ welcomes new coach
The new coach for the Pinetown Raiders Rugby Club for the 2017 season is Clifford Nel.
CLIFFORD Nel will join the Pinetown Raiders Rugby Club for the 2017 season.
Clifford is an old Raiders’ member and, after he gained a few years of experience at both premier and first division clubs, he has decided to share his knowledge with the local team. Clifford was a coach for the U15 Rovers side in 2014, the Hillcrest U14 in 2015 and this year at UKZN for the U20 side. He also had great success on a provincial level as he coached the U18 DRSU invitational team in 2013, the KZNRU Duikers U15 and U14 from 2014 to 2016. Clifford also coached at a school level at Hillcrest High School in U15 in 2015 and U16 this year.
“The 2017 season promises to be an exciting one as the club has decided to introduce an U20 side for next year as well as re-start the Colt teams for U13 to U18,” said Clifford.
All avid players in the Pinetown and Highway area encouraged to join the Pinetown Raiders Rugby Club on Tuesday, 10 January. Training will be every Tuesday and Thursday from 5.30pm to 8pm.
