We are absolutely thrilled to announce the return of three exceptional young talents and former Chester RUFC Mini & Junior players, who are returning to the club to play senior men’s rugby!

We can’t wait to see what these exciting prospects bring to the senior squad this season.

Adam returns to Chester boasting an impressive rugby CV, including stints with the prestigious 1st XV, U18, and as a recognized EAP (England Academy Player).

Thomas Jacques (18 | Fly-Half)
Like Adam, he comes through the formidable 1st XV, Sale Sharks U18s, and the EAP pathway.

Dylan Allen (22 | Scrum-Half)
Dylan returns to us after sharpening his tools at university, playing for Loughborough Students RFC

🗣️ From the Rhys Hayes (Head Coach):
“There is nothing better than seeing players who developed their love for the game right here at Hare Lane return to wear the senior badge. Adam, Thomas, and Dylan are incredibly exciting young players with bright futures, and we can’t wait to get to work with them on the pitch.”
