Story
DRFC Team Manager Paul Turton (Turts) sadly passed away on December 23rd after losing his battle with Covid.
Turts played as hooker for Pontefract RUFC and became a member of DRFC in the late 1980’s when he retired from playing. He then became a stalwart of the club, firstly as 1st XV touch judge and latterly as team and logistics manager up to the present day.
Turts was a fine example of giving his time voluntarily over 30 years to DRFC and was a much loved character at Castle Park.
To remember a man that gave so much to the Club, a commemorative bench will be placed at Castle Park in his memory. If you would like to contribute please donate via the page.
