Eddie Jones adds skills coach to backroom staff for summer tour

Eddie Jones has appointed Sam Vesty as England’s skills coach for their upcoming two-Test series against Argentina.

England head coach Eddie Jones said: “I was impressed by how Worcester attack. He interviewed very well. He’s got a nice feel for the game and I think he can add to us and help us with the attack.”

During his playing days, Vesty was capped at Under 18 and Under 21 levels and also made two senior appearances for England – both against Argentina – in 2009.

Warriors Director of Rugby Gary Gold said: “Sam has done tremendously well to help Warriors develop a potent attack, which has proved a real handful to opposition defences over the last two seasons.

“Our attacking record last season was something we are very proud of and Sam will now get the opportunity to develop his coaching style further and gather invaluable knowledge, which will be hugely beneficial to everyone at Sixways when he returns to the Club later this summer.”
