BRFC APPOINTS DIRECTOR OF RUGBY

Matthew Henry19 May 2023 - 18:00

We are delighted to announce that Graham Purdy been appointed as Director of Rugby, working in a strategic role with all playing sections of the club.

Graham joins Beckenham with extensive coaching experience and will be well known to many already as both a youth coach and current Director of Rugby at Langley Park School for Boys. Graham enjoyed a successful playing career which included the Wasps Academy, England u18 honours and spells at Henley, Blackheath and Westcombe Park in the national leagues.

Graham brings a wealth of experience to the table and complements the club’s strategy of recruiting talented individuals who share our sense of purpose and core values.

Asked to share his thoughts, Graham had the following to say;

"I'm delighted to be formally involved in the future of Beckenham RFC, having been around the club for 2 years coaching my son's age group. From the relatively small amount of interaction I have had with the wider club I know that it has so much to offer this community at all levels. The mini and junior sections are thriving and ever expanding. The senior men's sides continue to have great numbers and retain their league statuses and the Women's sides are going from strength to strength in quality and number.

This is a thrilling time for the club, and to be invited to be involved in some way with the direction the club moves in is humbling and extremely exciting. I look forward to helping steer the ship towards even brighter horizons."
