Mark Taylor to leave Scarlets

Scarlets Team Manager Mark Taylor will leave the region with immediate effect for personal reasons, confirms Scarlets Rugby.

 
The 52-times capped centre, and British & Irish Lion, joined the region ahead of the 2016-17 season. Well-respected by Scarlets colleagues and peers across the rugby fraternity Taylor was a part of the management team when the Scarlets were crowned PRO12 champions in May 2017.

 
The club has said a replacement will be recruited in due course to ensure preparations for the forthcoming season are unaffected.
