It is with great pleasure and pride that we announce this coming season's Frome RFC Senior Team Captains.

We are delighted to confirm that Geoff Taylor, Phil Clarke and Bryan Loftus will be our senior team captains ahead of a historic season at Frome RFC as we celebrate our 140th Year Anniversary.

Frome RFC's Director of Rugby, Garrie Webster is happy to announce that Geoff Taylor will Captain the Club & 1st XV for the upcoming 2022/23 season.

He said: "I am very happy to announce Geoff Taylor as the new Club Captain. He sets the standard and example with his efforts on match day and in his training ethic.

A previous Player of the Year and Trainer of the Year winner I am sure he will continue to grow, and will prove to be a great leader of the players as we look to build and attack the league next Season."

Webster commented further "The 2nd XV will be in good hands with Phil Clarke being elected as Captain. He has been at the club for a number of years and has been a regular face in the 1st XV also. Bryan Loftus brings fresh enthusiasm to the 3rd XV and looks to build on the great work that Alistair Fisher and Simon Bates have been doing."

He continued "I'm excited about future at the Club with our young players coming through, a very large number within the Academy set up and a keen and experienced Coaching team. I want to also wish the outgoing captains, Alex Mallon, Ethan White amd Alistair Fisher all the best, and thank you for your efforts and I look forward to seeing you play next season."

Following the announcements we also caught up with new Club Captain Geoff Taylor who had this to say.. "It is a great honour to be named as the Club and 1st XV Captain, It has always been an ambition of mine to be in this position, and one I can't wait to get stuck into. I look forward to working with Director of Rugby, Garrie Webster, the Coaching team in Dom Jones & JJ Gagiano, the Backroom Staff and of course all of the players across each of our squads.
