- Mike Stubbs, Head Coach

James Halpin has been announced as the club's new captain.

In breaking the news, Head Coach Mike Stubbs said "Halps' commitment and leadership qualities have been outstanding during pre-season. He has been very vocal in helping new players settle into the squad while also setting a high standard in training. Although he is still recovering from a shoulder injury and unavailable for the first few months his presence around the squad will be invaluable. In the meantime I am confident that vice captain Jack Naylor will do a fantastic job at leading the first XV."

Lewes open their league season this Saturday away to Horsham and then return to Stanley Turner Ground to watch England take on Stubbs' homeland, Wales! All welcome to watch the game on the big screen and consume a burger and a pint for £5.
