David Oxley Elected RFL President

Former CEO of the Rugby Football League (RFL), here David Oxley CBE, tadalafil has been appointed President of the League’s governing body.

Oxley, generic 76, succeeds Jim Harley and will hold the honorary position for 12 months, a period he described as ‘one of the most exciting in our great history’ at his election at the RL Council AGM in Warrington.

Oxley served as Secretary and latterly Chief Executive of the RFL between 1974 and 1992, when he reached the compulsory retirement age of 55.

On his appointment as President, Oxley said: “This is a very great honour and I am fortunate indeed to hold office in a year which sees the UK host the Rugby League World Cup in October and November and the Festival of World Cups, which have already got underway.

“I have achieved many things during my lifetime in sport but nothing could surpass the possibility that come November 30 I will be at Old Trafford as RFL President to see England captain Kevin Sinfield lift the Rugby League World Cup.”

Andrew Farrow was also elected Vice-President, whilst Bob Strott was re-elected as a non-Executive Director for another three years.
