THE SKIPPER RETURNS!

After an extensive rehabilitation and plenty of practice laps, we are delighted to welcome club captain Charles Wright back into the Agilia Bears line-up for Friday’s crucial Cab Direct Championship clash with the Workington Comets.

Charles has spent almost four months on the sidelines after suffering a shoulder injury in the very first meeting of the season. Seeing our skipper back in Bears colours is a huge boost as we head into the business end of the campaign.

Charles’ return also means we say a fond farewell to Nicolai Klindt, who has done a tremendous job deputising at No. 1 during his absence. We’d like to place on record our sincere thanks to Nicolai for his commitment and professionalism, and we wish him every success for the rest of the season.

Promoter Jamie Swales said:
“We’re obviously all delighted to see Charles back in the team. It was a nasty injury from what looked like a really innocuous fall, and at times we genuinely feared he might miss the rest of the season. To have him back for the run-in to the league campaign and the BSN Series semi-final is a massive boost for everyone at the club.

I also want to thank Nicolai for everything he has done for us. He slotted straight into the team, gave absolutely everything every time he wore the Bears race jacket, and I think he really enjoyed his time with us. He certainly built a great rapport with our supporters, and we’ll always be grateful for his contribution.”

Be there to give Charles the welcome home he deserves as the Bears take on the Workington Comets in a huge league encounter!
