Ben Gulliver played Premiership and European Challenge Cup rugby for Worcester
Ben Gulliver has been appointed as the new head coach of Plymouth Albion.
The 38-year-old replaces Kieran Hallett at the National One side and returns to the club where he spent two seasons as a player from 2006.
Gulliver also enjoyed spells with Premiership side Worcester and Albion's rivals Cornish Pirates as a lock.
"I feel so privileged to be asked to be head coach at Plymouth Albion. It really feels like I'm coming home," said Gulliver.
"I know a few of the guys at Plymouth from my playing days there and I have a good understanding of them as individuals and I think that will help us develop as a team.
"I'll be going in with a blank canvas and I want to get to know the players better. We'll work hard but there will be fun. I think there's a very good, strong squad here and it gives me something to get my teeth into."
