A little bit about this great man, after his own schooling he went to St Luke's College to train to be a PE teacher. He represented the College at rugby where he was spotted by Exeter RFC ( Chiefs) where he spent 2 great seasons playing with Exeter stalwarts such as John Lockyer and Bob Staddon. He was also awarded County honours and played for Devon 5 times.
After qualifying as a teacher he taught for 7 years at Queen Elizabeth Community College, Crediton but kept up his rugby with Crediton rugby club where he became club captain. When retiring from rugby he wanted to put as much back into the game as it gave him. He became Crediton club coach and oversaw a very successful time.
In 1981 Geoff moved to Teignmouth Community College where he stayed until retiring in 2019. In 1991 he spent 2 years coaching Teignmouth RFC and later went on to coach the youth section. He has helped mould some great players and in particular Sam & Joe Simmonds.
