Newport Gwent Dragons Staff Auction

Newport Gwent Dragons have launched an exciting new initiative to further engage with the 75 District A and C Clubs across their Region.

The Dragons staff auction sees players, coaches and staff being allocated to a partner club for the remainder of the 2016/17 season.

Dragons CEO Stuart Davies said:

“The staff auction is a fun and innovative part of our engagement programme and will help us to build on the links we currently enjoy with clubs across our Region. All players and staff are keen to get out and about and make a real difference to their clubs.”

Dragons players will make two appearances at their partner club through the season, which might include end of season awards, training sessions or junior events. Dragons coaches and staff will be an ongoing point of contact with their club through the season and will be able to share their specific expertise and advice as well as making a club visit.

“By the end of the season we hope to be able to tell a whole host of positive stories as our staff support clubs across a range of areas. As just a few examples our ground staff can assisting with pitch care, our marketing team will be able to support social media strategy and our strength and conditioning team might offer advice around training” Davies continued.

The Dragons Staff Auction has been organised in partnership with Adrian Evans, the WRU Regional Manager for the Dragons Region. Adrian said:

"This is a really good initiative to help rugby clubs from across the Region both on and off the field. I’m sure the clubs will find great benefit from sharing the skills and expertise of the Dragons staff and players." 

Newport Gwent Dragons are also running an Ambassador Scheme for the 2016/17 season. The new scheme, which was introduced in August, is free to join and gives clubs a range of benefits including free match tickets.
