Harry Kaufman - Utility Forward
TT: Harry is a great addition to our squad for next season as he brings a real hunger to perform to his best at every training session and in every match he plays. He is a fearless ball carrier, who runs good lines and can defend well in the middle of the field. As one of our older players, Harry has taken it on himself to set high standards which rub off on the rest of the squad.
Ben Gray- Prop/Back Row
TT: Ben joined us mid-way through the season and had a good impact for us with his hard running and high tempo defence. Ben, originally from Leicester, can play a number of positions, from prop, to second-row, but is probably best suited to loose-forward where he can have more freedom to inject himself into the game. He is very tough and plays way above his weight. With a full preseason and chance to settle straight into the squad, he will have a big 2019.
Cameron Stewart - Prop
TT: Cam, who hails from Leicester, was a real success story of 2018. I watched him playing for the Midlands Hurricanes Academy and invited him to attend pre-season, where he then got his head down and worked incredibly hard, asking the right questions and making improvements week on week. Eventually Cam got his opportunity and went on to make half a dozen appearances for the club, including the memorable win versus Keighley. I am really looking forward to another year working with Cam and helping him develop further. Like all our players, his attitude is first class and I am sure he will go from strength to strength now he has a year under his belt at this level.
