Kenneth Foulkes Net Worth At Death

Kenneth Foulkes, an English professional rugby league footballer who played in the 1960s has died at age 78. His death was announced today (August 27).

Foulkes played at club level for Castleford and Hull F.C where he amassed considerable wealth and at the time of death, he had an estimated net worth of $500,000.

Hull’s decision to sign Foulkes from Castkeford was because they needed someone to step into the shoes of the aging half Tommy Finn.

After being signed, Foulkes made his club debut against Leigh at the Boulevard in October 1964. He scored on his debut.

Foulkes proved to be an excellent acquisition for the Black & Whites, and despite his small stature standing at just 5ft4in, he certainly pulled no punches – irrespective of the huge frame of the opposition forwards.

Foulkes made his final appearance Hull F.C. against Blackpool Borough in March 1977. Hull won the game 22-13, leading to them securing the 1976-77 Second Division Championship.

After retiring, Foulkes was appointed as Hull’s assistant coach in 1985, working alongside legendary head coach Arthur Bunting in 1985, before taking over the reigns following Bunting’s departure and guiding the club through the second-half of the 1985/86 campaign.
