Whitehaven R.L.F.C. would like to announce the signing of Karl Olstrum, who signed for the club this afternoon. This is another major coup for the club. Karl is only 25 and already has plenty of experience in both Championship and Championship 1. Karl is a robust player who does NOT take a backward step. He will add even more power and strength to an already formidable pack being gathered at the club by the football committee and coach Carl Foster. Forster said ' it's great to get Karl on board he has a great character and he'll be a fans favourite'
       The club is delighted with our recruitment policy said Chairman Tommy Todd. Olstrum added "I am so looking forward to next season and teaming up again with Marc Shackley, I think the squad we are assembling is great and we will be going all out next year to do the club and the town proud"

Strange and daft signing? You joking!! Karl is a great player, he will bring a lot to your team and I'm gutted we've lost him, I wish him all the best (not when he plays us lol)

Can't believe some people on here. Karl is probably 1 of the best local forwards around. Him playing for his local team is something I've hoped for for a few years now. Welcome to Haven Karl and please show some of our fan's what a great player you are. I'm chuffed you've finally come to us.
