Posted: Tue Dec 01, 2020 6:48 pm
Salford Red Devils have announced the appointment of Richard Marshall as their new head coach.
Marshall joins from St Helens, where he was part of consecutive Super League Grand Final victories, as assistant to two different head coaches.
He has also been the Head Coach of Halifax, where he spent four years. During his time there, he helped the club reach the Super 8s three times out of four seasons, before joining the Saints in 2019.
Marshall said: “I’m really excited about joining the Club. I’ve been really impressed by the organisation and everyone I’ve met.
“The ambition of the Club aligns with my own, which makes this a perfect role for me.
“I learned a lot in recent years, from Justin Holbrook and Kristian Woolf at St Helens and as a head coach in my own right, so I think I’ve got the skills necessary to be successful.
Now, I can’t wait to meet all the players and get stuck into preseason.”
Director of rugby and operations Ian Blease added: “Richard has really impressed us, and it’s already clear that he has bought into the vision of the Club.
“He joins us from a successful club with a winning culture, having won two consecutive grand finals during his time at St Helens.
“While he was a head coach, he also proved his ability to build a team and we’re looking forward to seeing what he can achieve with us.”
