Pre-pack rescue of Worcester Warriors finalised

Following a torrid 18 months and almost certain collapse, Worcester Warriors Rugby Club has been rescued in a last minute deal

 

Experts from business advisory firm Quantuma have completed a pre-pack administration sale to Junction 6 Limited, a consortium backed by Loxwood Holdings.

Junction 6 was incorporated on 20 February and has a sole director, Chris Holland, who is also the owner of Loxwood.

The deal sees the future of Atlas Worcester Warriors Rugby Club secured, saving more than 60 jobs. However, the men and women rugby teams have not played at the ground since the club went bust in 2022, although Worcester City women’s team does play at the stadium.

Quantuma managing directors, Brian Burke and Andrew Watling were appointed as joint administrators of Atlas on 24 April 2024. Atlas briefly owned Worcester Warriors Rugby Club for about a year after its initial collapse.
