Lichfield RUFC has bolstered its backroom team with the appointment of a new assistant coach.

Jon Perks, who is currently the academy development officer at Worcester Warriors, will take on the role ahead of the 2020/21 season.

His focus will be working with the backs once the RFU confirms a start date for the new campaign.

Lichfield’s director of rugby Dan Hemingway said:

> “We think Jon will be a great fit for our group and his ethos matches that of the whole club.  
>  
> “He is excited about developing young players and creating an environment where people and players can thrive.  
>  
> “Both of these elements are crucial to us at Lichfield.  
>  
> “We look forward to what Jon can bring, not only to the senior section, but to the club as a whole.”
