Marc has been an integral part of Wimbledon RFC since 2015, contributing extensively to both the coaching and management of the men’s senior section. In addition to his coaching responsibilities, he plays a crucial role in the club’s operations as the Referee and Fixture Secretary, ensuring the smooth coordination of matches and officiating assignments. His leadership and dedication have been instrumental in the development of the club’s players and overall rugby program.
Before joining Wimbledon RFC, Marc honed his coaching skills at London Cornish and Bank of England RFC, bringing a wealth of experience to each club. His rugby journey, however, began long before his coaching career. As a player, he competed at a semi-professional level across multiple rugby strongholds, including South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, and England, gaining invaluable insights into different playing styles and competitive environments.
Marc’s involvement with Surrey Rugby has been equally impactful. He initially joined as League Secretary for the Merit Leagues, where he played a key role in the administration and organisation of competitive rugby at the grassroots level. His responsibilities expanded to overseeing Surrey Counties 1 and, more recently, Regional 2 South East, further strengthening his influence on the county’s rugby structure.
Since 2019, Marc has led Surrey’s Senior County Representative teams as Director of Rugby, overseeing the Men’s, Women’s, and U20 squads. Both the Men’s and U20 squads are steadily progressing, building strong foundations for future success, while the women’s team achieved significant success by reaching the final at Twickenham in 2023. Under his leadership, these teams have continued to grow in stature, benefiting from strong coaching and system foundations. His efforts have not only elevated the performance of the representative teams but also fostered greater engagement and development opportunities for players across the county.
Professionally, Marc works in the international payments industry, specialising in Compliance and Corporate Governance. His expertise in regulatory frameworks and operational oversight ensures that financial institutions navigate complex compliance landscapes effectively.
A passionate sports supporter beyond rugby, Marc enjoys a round of golf in his spare time, further showcasing his love for competitive and recreational sports.
