Bishop Auckland RUFC are delighted to announce that Newcastle Falcons back row forward Carl Fearns will join the club as a coach working with the U18 Academy team.

Carl will join the current coaches as they look to further the progress made last season and brings with him a massive amount of Elite Rugby experience.

Carl has played over 100 games in the Premiership for Sale, Bath and Newcastle and has enjoyed spells in France with Rouen and Lyon. In addition to this Carl played England U18 and England Saxons.

We wish him well and look forward to him hooking up with the U18 players and staff next Tuesday.
