The new season brings a change in captaincy for Selby 1st XV, as Ashley Parkinson steps-up to take over the responsibility. Ash has played at Selby since a junior, and following his 1st XV debut in the 2014/15 season, Ash has gone on to earn 70 starts for the club and has 6 tries to his name.

Ashley is sponsored by The Clothing Bank

They collect good quality clothing to provide for those who need it.

"We found out first hand, that people that fall just above this poverty line are struggling more than ever to clothe themselves or their family after having to pay for the everyday living costs. Due to the current climate we can only expect this number to inflate.

Right now, more than ever, people need the security of being able to clothe themselves and their loved ones."
