“I want to wish Newark Rugby Club the best of luck with this new initiative. Rugby has the power to inspire but more importantly to provide vital life skills to prepare young people for the next step.”
Lewis Moody MBE

I’m delighted the club is starting its own rugby academy to give new opportunities to young people in the town and surrounding area. As a former player at the club, I remember very affectionately my time at the club and how it helped launch my professional rugby career. I look forward to supporting the initiative and following its progress.
Dusty Hare MBE
