CHEPSTOW Rugby Club's under-15s squad will benefit from sponsorship from Charles Church.

The £1,500 deal will see the house-builder's name on the front of brand new shirts for the players.

Dave Adams, head coach, said his players now "feel the part" in their first ever brand new kit. The team had previously only had access to secondhand shirts and shorts.

Mr Adams said: "This is the first new set of rugby shirts our players have had.

"Before Charles Church stepped in we were playing in 'hand-me-downs' and even a few of the shirts had the same number on the back. 

"Now the boys look far more professional and we match up against all other rugby clubs. The players are delighted and we can't thank Charles Church enough."
