Benetton have announced that Kieran Crowley will continue to be their head coach until June 2022. The 1987 World Cup winner from New Zealand arrived in Treviso in summer 2016 and led Benetton to the Guinness PRO14 quarter-finals last May for the first time in the club’s history, nearly beating Munster to reach the semi-finals.

He also won the PRO14 coach of the year award, the first from an Italian franchise to be recognised in this way. “I am very happy to continue my experience with Benetton Rugby,” said Crowley, the former Canadian head coach at the 2011 and 2015 World Cups, ahead of the start to the 2019/20 season which begins with Saturday’s visit to Italy by defending champions Leinster. 

“I arrived three years ago believing in this project and I still believe in the club’s vision. We are heading in the right direction with a club made up of good people who, regardless of their role and rank, do their best for the good of the club.

“Last year we did something important, but this is a new year, with new challenges. We start from scratch, so it is up to us to continue working hard and grow to reach new goals.”

Benetton sporting director Antonio Pavanello added: “After a summer of negotiations, we are proud to continue our project with Crowley and that he has again chosen Benetton.

“Our satisfaction is reinforced and are convinced that Kieran is the right figure to continue our journey. We will put together the best means to achieve great results together.

“I would like to express my personal happiness because in Kieran I’ve found a coach to work well with, share my ideas and start a long term project.”

Leinster cleanse palette with record URC scoreline against Zebre

My name is Solenn Bonnet, and I am a single mother navigating the challenges of raising my two-year-old child while trying to make ends meet. I came across a trading platform that promised astonishing daily profits of 18%. The allure of such a high return on investment was too tempting to resist, and I found myself drawn into cryptocurrency trading. Excited by the prospect of financial freedom, I invested a significant amount of my savings, totaling over 5.7 BTC. However, what started as a hopeful venture quickly turned into a nightmare. The platform was a scam, and I lost everything I had invested. The emotional toll of this loss was immense; I felt devastated and helpless, struggling to provide for my child and keep up with my bills. In my desperate attempt to recover my funds, I sought help from various recovery experts. Unfortunately, I encountered numerous fraudulent individuals who claimed they could help me retrieve my lost money. Each time I reached out, I was met with disappointment and further scams, which only deepened my despair. Last year was one of the most challenging periods of my life, filled with anxiety and uncertainty about my financial future. Feeling overwhelmed and at a loss, I confided in a close friend from church about my situation. She listened compassionately and shared her own experiences with financial difficulties. Understanding my plight, she introduced me to Tech Cyber Force Recovery, a group of skilled hackers known for their expertise in recovering lost funds. Skeptical yet hopeful, I decided to reach out to them as a last resort. Their services came at a higher cost, but my friend generously offered to help me with a partial payment. I was amazed by how quickly they responded and began the recovery process. Their team was professional, efficient, and incredibly supportive throughout the entire ordeal. To my relief, they successfully recovered more than I had lost to those heartless scammers. This was truly transformative, and I felt a sense of relief and gratitude that I hadn’t felt in a long time. I strongly encourage anyone who has faced similar challenges or fallen victim to scams to reach out to Tech Cyber Force Recovery. If you’ve invested in a fraudulent platform like I did, they are highly capable of helping you reclaim your hard-earned money. Don’t lose hope; there is a way to recover what you’ve lost.
