We’re delighted to announce that Jordan Barnes has joined Royal Wootton Bassett RFC as our new Lead Therapist.

Jordan brings over a decade of experience supporting players across rugby and football. He previously served as First Team Therapist at Swindon Supermarine FC, where he was responsible for pitch-side care, injury assessment and rehabilitation, and supporting athletes throughout demanding league campaigns.

Currently, Jordan is also working with SGS College’s ACCE Rugby Programme, helping develop young academy athletes through best-practice injury prevention, treatment, and rehab – giving him first-hand insight into the needs of developing players on elite pathways.

Jordan has a real passion for rugby and player welfare. He’s committed to working closely with our coaches, players, and therapy team to promote a culture of care, resilience, and performance across all our squads.

We’re really pleased to have him on board to lead and manage our growing therapy provision. Please join us in giving Jordan a very warm welcome to Ballards Ash!
