Martin Jepson has made his first big move since taking full control of Castleford Tigers with the appointment of Chris Chester as director of rugby.
Castleford are looking for Chester to do the same job he has done at Leigh Leopards after overseeing their huge improvement in recent years since taking up a similar role with the Lancashire club.
He comes with vast experience as a player with Hull and Hull KR and head coach at KR and Wakefield Trinity before proving his credentials further in a successful spell as Leigh’s head of rugby.
He has an impressive track record in recruitment and has been tasked to replicate this at the Jungle.
