There are several other sanctions listed to improve the player approval processes which you will be able view on the judgement report (link below) including a full safeguarding audit to be carried out. We have also been given a suspended relegation for two seasons until the end of season 2023/2024, relegation will only be applied in the event the club commits any further breach of Relegation 15.6.
However, we want to reassure you that as your appointed senior committee we have and will be making further changes to change to both our adult playing coaching team and the rugby committee with immediate effect. We are confident these changes will improve our internal processes both on and off the field to ensure we don’t provide any further breaches moving forward.
We appreciate this is disappointing news after a positive note at the weekend from our club chair Andy Watts, but we hope this message will provide some confidence to our members that we are dealing this with the utmost urgency and importance.

Thanks in advance for your continued patience and support.

Andy Watts
on behalf of Bradford & Bingley RFC Senior Committee
