RUFC Statement - Aled Evans
22-04-08
Chester Rugby club are extremely sorry to have
to announce that Aled Evans, who was one
of the selected 22 to represent the club at Twickenham
on 12th April, having suffered a terrible accident
in the form of a fall, died on Sunday 20th April
from his injuries.
Aled, who joined the club shortly before christmas
last year, quickly established himself in the
first team squad as a member of the back row brotherhood.
He was not known to take a backward or even sideways
step and was always in the thick of battle, yet
off the field he was a quiet individual with a
dry sense of humour often backed with a wry smile.The
club was hoping for a longer involvemant with
Aled but this was not to be.
The players involved at Twickenham donated the
game to Aled and he will be forever remembered
at Chester RUFC.
Our sincerest comiserations go out to all his
family and friends and we are honoured to have
known him, even though only for a short while.
For and on behalf of Chester RUFC
Rob Foden
Head Coach

End Season With Another Win
20-04-08
Chester
1st XV ended the most succesful season in recent
history with another win, the 28th of the season,
and kept the 2008 winning run intact (all 14 games
since Jan 1st 08) with a comprehensive defeat
of local side Lymm.
In
what proved to be a tetchy encounter, with the
home side regularly looking to make up for a lake
of competitiveness in other ways, the Chester
side remained focussed on ending the season with
another 2 league points.
