FORMER Otley coach Tom Rock captains the UK Armed Forces later this month in the remembrance game against Bath United.

It is sure to be a proud moment for the former Bingley Grammar School pupil from Sandbeds when he leads the side out on Monday, November 21 (7.30pm).

And there will be added spice at The Rec for Tom as his brother Andy is Academy manager at Bath RUFC, having been appointed in the summer.

Bath United play in the Aviva A League and provide youngsters with the chance to showcase their talent.

Tom's career started with Keighley Juniors – then known as the Bantams – and he worked his way through the ranks before joining Leeds Tykes.

He went on to play and coach for Otley before taking on a career in the RAF, though he has been back to coach at Keighley.

Andy also used to play for Keighley and Leeds Tykes before moving into coaching himself.
