North Otago captain Josh Clark will move into a coaching role as he recovers from the season-ending knee injury he sustained during the Heartland Championship.
Clark, a former Otago B and sevens representative out of the Pirates club, will join the Maheno club as a co-coach with Dallas Newlands, a former Maheno and North Otago back.
A successful operation should allow Clark return to the field in July, but for now he is excited by the coaching opportunity.
''I'm looking forward to coming up and helping out the best I can'', he said.
