Applications are now been sought for two key roles in the English Lions set-up.

The Lions men’s side – which draws its players from BARLA, Student RL, Tier Three, Tier Four and the Armed Forces – are looking for applicants for both head coach and manager with the new people looking to be installed at the beginning of 2013.

The Lions concept was introduced following the formation of the Community Board in 2005 and since then sides at both men's and under 18 level regularly play games at both home and abroad.

Both roles will be for a two-year period with an option for a maximum further two years.

Applicants should send their current CV – plus a supporting letter – to Andy Harland, The RFL, Red Hall, Red Hall, Leeds, LS17 8NB.

Please state which position you are applying for.

The deadline for applications is Friday November 30.
