Sept
2009
Whitehaven
have signed Aussie playmaker Dylan Skee on a two-year contract.
Scott McAvoy(23) has set the ball rolling as the first of Whitehaven’s
star names to commit to a fresh deal for 2010 and beyond. Also Graeme
Mattinson is a happy hooker after penning a fresh two-year deal with Whitehaven....
Ex-Cockermouth amateur John Patrick is also to return to the pro ranks
with Whitehaven next season.
July 2009
WHITEHAVEN
have signed Hensingham’s amateur international starlet Reece Fox
on a two-year professional deal.
April 2009
Whitehaven
have signed BARLA Great Britain tourist Bradd Crellin on a two-year pro
deal.
Bradd CrellinCrellin, 19, has been a regular for amateur outfit Millom
in National Conference Division One, often turning out at centre for his
home town club, though Haven see him as a back-rower.
23
Jan 2009 - Whitehaven have swooped to sign highly rated Jamie Theoharous
from Penrith Panthers on a one year contract with the option to extend
for a further year. Jamie had played with the Emu Plains in Sydney Australia.
The 21 one year old lock holds an EU passport so does not count towards
the quota. He scored 6 tries in 24 games for the Panther's Under 20's
in the Toyota National Youth Cup last season.
Whitehaven have also February 2009 signed Carl Stephenson, one of the
county’s brightest teenage talents, on a three-year professional
contract.
Meanwhile Whitehaven RLFC are set to make a little RL history. They
are bringing 20 year old Serbian forward Soni Radonovic from Belgrade
to the Recreation Ground. Whitehaven officials have worked for several
weeks to secure Soni's signature and coach Ged Stokes was keen to express
his gratitude to the Operations Dept. at the RFL for all their help with
the paperwork. "Soni is a good player and he may well be good enough for
the top of the Championship. He is a strong runner, passer and particularly
tackler. He has played in all of the last 12 Serbian international games
including the World Cup qualifiers and it really is gratifying when a
player like Soni comes through from a country which is one of the emerging
nations in RL. I am sure the fans in West Cumbria will give him a big
welcome." The Whitehaven club hope to have the Serbian in their team a
week on Sunday when a full strength Bradford Bulls are the visitors to
the Recreation Ground.
17
Dec 2008 - Whitehaven Rugby League club have been affected by a new policy
ruling from the United Kingdom Border Agency.
The Agency
has ruled that no overseas amateurs can play for professional or semi-professional
sporting clubs.Anyone holding working holiday , student or other temporary
visas will not be allowed to register with sporting bodies such as the
Rugby Football League.
This ruling
will have consequences for many sporting clubs but particularly in Rugby
League where arcane and convoluted rules already exist depending on the
parentage, birthplace and the passport of the individual.
Whitehaven
are very disappointed that they will have to release scrum half Danny
Russell. Russell, signed from Gateshead in the close season, has not pulled
on a Whitehaven shirt yet but he will be caught in the ruling.
Whitehaven
coach Ged Stokes said, “This is an extremely disappointing ruling
and I feel sorry for Danny on a personal level. The lad was looking forward
to putting his talent on show and now he will be denied that opportunity.
However, if this ruling is the same for all clubs at all levels then I
cannot complain.”
Chairman, Gordon Grace commented, “I am particularly concerned about
Danny on a personal level. He is a cracking scrum half and he will be
a sad loss. As a club we will support him and do all that we can to ease
the situation for him. I also feel sorry for our fans who were looking
forward to seeing Danny in the No. 7 shirt”
Young
Danny Bower
Has signed in December 08 on a two-year professional contract.
The prop, from Millom, featured for Haven’s reserve-grade last term
at just 16, and boss Ged Stokes reckons he has plenty of potential.
New
Kiwi signing Taani Lavulavu will kick-start his career with Whitehaven
and the prop should run out in the Xmas Derby.
