James Lowes appointed to Ealing Trailfinders Coaching Team

Ealing Trailfinders can today confirm that James Lowes has been appointed to the coaching team for the 2019/20 season. 

Lowes brings a wealth of experience to Trailfinders Sports Club after a long and successful career in Rugby League as well as coaching in Rugby Union in recent years. 

The 49-year-old played 125 times for Leeds Rhinos before moving to Bradford Bulls in 1996 where he would go on to feature on 238 occasions and enjoy success in the Super League Grand Final. 

On the international level he also represented Great Britain on five occasions in his career. 

He began coaching at Warrington Wolves and has since coached at Bradford Bulls and Leeds Rhinos as well in the top flight. Lowes then moved to the 15-a-side game with Yorkshire Carnegie as he looked to take them back towards the top of the Championship. 

His most recent appointment saw him become Assistant Coach of the England Rugby League team, and he led them to victory over New Zealand in the Autumn in a titanic test series.
