Worcester Warriors bosses confirm the team will take part in the Premiership
There has been growing uncertainty about the club and its finances
Last night Worcester Warrior bosses confirmed the team will be taking part in the Premiership this season. This news comes as over recent weeks a shadow of doubt hung over the club's future as they faced a 'winding up' petition filed by the HMRC.
A Premiership Rugby spokesperson said: “The RFU and Premiership Rugby have been in regular dialogue with the RPA, DCMS and Worcester Warriors, and the Premiership clubs since a winding up petition was filed by HMRC.
“As a result of assurances provided on payment of salaries and insurance cover they are able to participate in Premiership Rugby.
“We will continue to work together to provide the Worcester Warriors owners with the best opportunity for developing their future sustainability plans.”
