The club will have a new physio this season, with 40 year old Paul Lloyd joining Billy Jeffrey's backroom team.

Paul has considerable experience and qualifications in the treatment of sporting injuries. In recent years, he has provided physio support locally for both Rugby Lions and Newbold Rugby Club, and also has worked with the Derby County F.C. Youth team.

A keen amateur footballer in his time, he played for AEI Rugby and Coventry Sphinx amongst others, and he also lives and works locally as a painter and decorator.

Paul replaces the outgoing Bob Gardner, who served the club for many years but decided to call it a day.
