It is with great sadness that we have learned of the sudden death of Jonathan Marsh. Jonathan was the Chairman of Canterbury RFC and was also the driving force behind the formation and management of the club’s wheelchair rugby team. He was passionate about the game, ambitious for the team and completely ‘hands-on’ making things happen. He also played a key role as a member of the DMG where his experience and clear thinking was invaluable and contributed to the wider development of the sport. The way that Canterbury has so quickly established itself as a thriving GB club is hugely impressive and owes a great deal to Jonathan. His legacy will be enduring but at this moment all we can really think about is how shocked and sad we all are to get this news and to send our heartfelt condolences to his family.
