Castleford Tigers have appointed Chris Chester as their director of rugby.
The previous Hull KR and Wakefield Trinity head coach had held the identical function at Leigh Leopards since 2021.
Chester’s appointment comes after Martin Jepson completed his takeover of Tigers, who lie tenth in Tremendous League, on Saturday.
“I’m delighted to welcome Chris to the membership. His pedigree speaks for itself, and I sit up for working with him within the coming years,” Jepson told the club website., external
