Matt Sherratt to return to Sixways

Matt Sherratt is to re-join Worcester Warriors as Attack and Backs Coach as successor to Neil Doak who will leave Sixways by mutual agreement when his contract expires at the end of the current season.

Sherratt is currently Backs Coach of Pro-14 side Ospreys but he began his coaching career in the Academy at Sixways where he spent five years, having joined Warriors on an initial placement.

Sherratt, 43, then joined Bristol as Backs coach in 2011 and had five successful seasons there, which culminated in promotion to the Premiership in his final season, before he joined Cardiff Blues as Attack and Backs Coach.

His talents were recognised with his appointment as Wales’ Backs Coach, working with Head Coach Rob Howley during the 2016/17 season including the summer tour to Samoa and Tonga.

He joined Ospreys at the start of last season but will leave the Liberty Stadium at the end of this season to take up his new role with Warriors.
