Box said: “I’m delighted to be representing Keymer and Hassocks for the 2018 season. I’m looking forward to the challenge of playing in England and contributing as much as I can both on the field and off the field within the community.”
Joe Isted, 1st eleven captain at Keymer and Hassocks said “We’re really pleased that Harvey is joining us for the 2018 season. We’ve had some really great feedback from one of our club members who played alongside him in Australia recently, and we are confident he can help the club push forward after a difficult 2017. We are expecting great performances on the pitch and are sure that he will be a positive addition to our junior coaching team.”
