Harlequins appoint Long and Turner-Hall to full-time coaching roles

Harlequins have appointed Sean Long and Jordan Turner-Hall to full-time roles on their backroom staff. Long, who has a history with the club and was previously a part-time consultant, will serve as skills and transition coach. Turner-Hall, a former player with 181 appearances for the Quins, takes on the role of defence and transition coach. Their appointments come after a disappointing ninth-place finish in the Premiership, the club's worst in eight years. The coaching staff is set to expand further with the addition of a new attack coach in the near future.
