HEAD coach Neil Loader has left Cinderford Rugby Club just three months into the season.

It means Nic Corrigan now becomes Director of Professional Rugby & Coaching – working alongside Andy Deacon (rugby manager) and Paul Morris (player development manager).

Corrigan was originally brought in several weeks ago as a coaching consultant to work with the club until the end of the season.

He is the former head coach and director of rugby at Chester. A second-row with the Royal Navy and Henley Hawks, he retired from playing in 2009.

Corrigan has also worked as a performance coach with the British Olympic Association and Premiership Rugby Ltd.
