Coventry Rugby are pleased to announce the return of popular French lock forward Benjamin Dechartres to Coventry. Benjamin played for Coventry in that traumatic season 2009/10, making 27 appearances.
Always keeping in touch with the club, Benji, aged 24, has now got his wish by returning to the club he loves, and never really wanted to leave. He feels a real affinity withCoventryafter they resurrected his rugby career, and looks forward to assisting their progress.
Having experience of French Super 14 with Clermont, also played at Tarbes and Massy, he has just returned from Australia, where he played for Eastern Suburbs. He now brings his bulk and experience and whole hearted approach back to Coventry Rugby. It is another example of how Coventry Rugby have made sure they have cover in key positions this season.

The Knights are well known toCoventry fans both through their previous clashes at Championship level and their Director of Rugby Brett Davey. Kick off is 7.30 pm at The Butts Park Arena.
