Allan brings a wealth of experience and passion to the role. His rugby journey began at Thirsk, followed by his school years at Giggleswick, and a playing career with Leeds, Doncaster, and most recently, Hull Ionians.

In addition to his playing pedigree, Allan has built up valuable coaching experience, assisting both junior and senior squads at Doncaster and Ionians. Living locally and with strong ties to Ripon Rugby Club, Allan is ready to take the next step in his rugby career—right here with us.

Allan shared his excitement:
“It’s exciting to be making a start with something new, looking forward to it.”

Please join us in giving Allan a warm Ripon welcome as we continue to build and grow together.
