Personal Overview

I am seeking a playing opportunity in the English Championship/National 1 or The Scottish Super 6 to climb the league ladder. I can play comfortably at 8 or Lock.

I have played 2 seasons of academy league rugby with Yorkshire Carnegies Academy Team, I was selected for a number of international Scotland camps through this where I played twice and made it as a reserve in the u18 6 Nations Squad.

I have played 1 season of National 3 North Club Rugby for Sandal RUFC and completed preseason of the 2021/22 season with Rotherham Titans. I have then since joined Huddersfield RUFC for the remainder of the season in National 2 North before moving to Sheffield Tigers RUFC in this League. 

From Sheffield Tigers, i have transferred to Hull RUFC in National League 1 where I currently play and have featured in every league game for the remainder of the season. 

I was involved in Yorkshire County under 20s for the 2021/22 season 

I attended college at Bishop Burton where I played regularly as a starter for the AASE 1st XV. Having stayed on to study a university degree I am now part of the elite rugby programme there, ran by Mike Umaga (See ref.) with the team competing at Bucs Premier North level.

I would be thoroughly open to opportunities playing abroad also after finishing university.

Teams Played for:

Sandal- Northern Premier

Rotherham Titans

Huddersfield

Sheffield Tigers

Hull RUFC- National 1

Bishop Burton Mens (University)- 3rd tier of national BUCs

I have played at representative level for the teams listed below:

Yorkshire County- U16s

Yorkshire Carnegie Academy- U16s,17s and 18s

Edinburgh RUFC Academy- U18s

Scotland- U18s

 

As a Lock/Back-Row my main strengths include: ball carrying, jackling, handling and rucking, i am also comfortbale playing as an edge forward. I am comfortable as a jumper in any position in the lineout and can confidently lead a set piece move. After focusing on playing lock regularly this season, my previous experience at back-row
