Chadwick changes codes to join Fylde
Chadwick has rugby deep within his DNA. Before his attempt to revive professional RL on the Fylde coast with the Panthers, he was chairman Oldham as they twice reached the semi-finals of the Challenge Cup.
He is well known at the Woodlands, having negotiated the Panthers’ move there from Bloomfield Road in 2006. The club would continue to be based at the Ansdell club until it folded in 2010.
