Whitehaven RL are delighted to announce the signing of Brad Billsborough from St Helens. The scrum half or hooker comes from the Under 19's side at Langtree Park. He made 21 appearences for the sides Under 19 & Reserve side this season scoring 1 try and kicked 40 goals & 1 drop goal. Billsborough said "I’m made up with signing for Whitehaven, looking forward to the challenge I’ve known Carl for ages through St. Helens he’s a great bloke and doing well with Haven. I am looking forward to paying him back for the faith he’s put in me" Head coach Carl Forster said "I'm made up to bring Brad in. He's come from a great set up at Saints and they speak really well of him. He's clever and very vocal for a young lad and will add great depth in key positions in our halves and hooker role. Brad recently made his international debut for Germany as they went up against Wales Dragonhearts. Ben qualifies for Germany through his mother who is German born. He put in a man of the match performance scoring a try and kicking five goals.

Got to be one of our best signings this pre-season ........... young player with proven development, but already enough class to play well in our division and with the clear ability to improve and cover at least two critical playing positions in the team.

So pleased to see players like this committing to haven, where they see they can both develop and contribute.

Local lads should see this signing as reasons for them to commit also.

Settle in and enjoy your experiences playing with a traditional homeland RL club Brad lad.
