Nottingham extend Joe Cobden's contract

Nottingham Rugby have confirmed the re-signing of centre Joe Cobden for the 2017/18 season.

The 25-year-old will continue as one of Nottingham's longest-serving players, having joined back in 2011.


Having established himself as a crowd favourite over the years, he will be hoping for more luck in the forthcoming season.

"We're delighted to have Joe sign again and really our hope is that he has a little bit of luck through pre-season and builds up that resilience and robustness he needs to fulfil the undoubted potential he has to perform at this level. I hope for Joe's sake and everybody at the club's sake that he gets a chance to realise that potential next season.” said head coach Ian Costello.

Joe will also continue his coaching role at the Nottingham Rugby Academy, where he currently assists head coach and fellow first XV teammate Matt Everard.
