WWR are pleased to announce that Stan Battock has been appointed the Interim Head of the organisations Technical Working Group (TWG) following Darren Roberts stepping down from the role earlier in the year.
Stan Battock a former Head of the Technical Committee and member of the TWG stated “I am honoured and humbled to accept the appointment as the Interim Head of the Technical Working Group for Wheelchair Rugby. I look forward to working with the members of the TWG to achieve the outcomes that will make a difference to the sport and the technical officials involved in this great game.”
Richard Allcroft President of Wheelchair Rugby added “As an organisation, we will be entering into our next strategic phase over the next 12 months. Central to what we do are our volunteers which of course includes all of our technical officials ranging from referees, evaluators, game commissioners through to our many table officials.
Stan has years of experience within wheelchair rugby. I’d like to thank Stan for stepping into this interim position and I know he will help shape our next strategic objectives.
I’d like to thank Darren Roberts who has led the TWG since 2018. Darren is moving on after accepting a promotion within his daytime job which I know he will contribute to significantly. I wish him all the best.
Darren was also supported by Jon Corson throughout his tenure and my thanks go to Jon as well for his continued contributions.”
