Rugby Canada has signed men’s coach Kingsley Jones to a two-year contract extension that will see him lead the team through 2025.
The former Wales captain has been in charge of the Canadian men since September 2017.
While the Canadian men failed to qualify for the World Cup currently underway in France, Rugby Canada says Jones has widened the depth of the Canadian talent pool and improved collaboration between the Canadian sevens and 15s programs.
Jones’ record at the Canadian helm is 15-31-0.
