Helensburgh Men's Rugby Club have announced some new coaching appointments this week, adding some fresh faces to their team.

Ollie Curtis has started as the club's backs coach, and also Simon Brown and Stuart Ashdown have agreed to be joint second team managers.

Both Brown and Ashdown have a coaching background and will look to take the next step after the work set in place by Andy Hodgson last season.

The men's side, who completed their pre-season warm-up against Hamilton's 2nd XV on Saturday, get their BT West Division One season under way against Garnock at home on Saturday, August 27, kick-off at 3pm.

They then travel to East Kilbride the following week, and will then host Allan Glen's on Saturday, September 10.
