🚨 SIGNING ANNOUNCEMENT 🚨

Aspull RFC are delighted to announce the signing of Jack Bluehouse.

Having recently relocated to the area following the acquisition of a property in the exclusive St Andish district, Jack was keen to immerse himself in local life as quickly as possible. By all accounts, he’s made a flying start.

Jack joins the club as Senior Assistant Lineout Coaching Consultant (Deputy), a position carrying virtually no authority, no budget, and no recognised place on the club organisational chart.

He has also signed exclusively for the 2nd XV, where he hopes to bring experience, leadership, and several previously unexplained absences from opposition social functions.

Already a familiar face around the village, Jack has embraced the community spirit that makes Aspull special. In fact, few new residents have managed to meet quite so many local families in such a short space of time.

Away from rugby, Jack is looking forward to helping with the youth setup, attending club events, and continuing his relentless campaign to become known by an unusually high percentage of local married women.

Speaking after signing, Jack said:

“I’ve been made to feel incredibly welcome by everyone in the area. Some more than others. The club’s ambition, facilities and complete lack of expectations made this an opportunity I simply couldn’t turn down.”

Welcome to Aspull, Jack.

What a day for the lads.

Aspull U14s made it all the way to the final of the Try It Rugby 7s this weekend after a brilliant run through the groups and knockout stages:

Rossendale 17-0
Preston 34-0
Eccles 39-5
Lymm 34-10
Manchester 24-7

Final
Bowdon 12-0

A massive credit to coaches Jake Greenhalgh and Stuart Witherington, who have brought this group on hugely over the last few years. The improvement in the lads, both as rugby players and as a team, is there for everyone to see.

But more importantly than results, the boys represented Aspull the right way all weekend. Their behaviour, attitude and respect on and off the pitch were absolutely impeccable and did the club proud.

Well done lads. A brilliant achievement and plenty more to come from this group 🔵⚪️

Huge congratulations to Aspull c**t Zac Dennit on his selection for the England Community Lions U17s squad. A massive achievement and thoroughly deserved. 👏🏉

Zac made his Open Age debut for the club last season and announced himself in style by crossing for a try on debut. To now see him pulling on the England shirt is brilliant recognition of the hard work, attitude and talent he’s shown throughout his time at the club.

A special mention as well to everyone at Wigan St Judes ARLFC, whose coaching setup and player development pathway have clearly played a huge part in helping Zac reach this level. Community clubs and coaches putting time into young players is what the game is all about, and this is a fantastic example of that paying off.

Everyone at Aspull RFC is incredibly proud of you Zac. Enjoy every minute of the experience and go well representing both your clubs and the community game on the international stage. 🇬🇧🦁

Massive congratulations to Kian Westhead on his selection for the Rugby Scotland Summer International Campaign. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Everyone at Aspull Rugby is incredibly proud to support Kian as he takes another huge step in his rugby journey. A top lad on and off the pitch, and fully deserving of the opportunity ahead of him.

We can’t wait to see one of our own representing at international level this summer.

Go well Kian — Up The Emus 🖤🩵

Massive congratulations to three absolute cornerstones of the club on their nominations in the England Rugby Volunteer Recognition Programme Awards 25/26 👏

🏉 Tom Kennedy
🏉 Rob Stopforth
🏉 Elaine Perry

Aspull RFC simply doesn’t function without people like this. The hours behind the scenes, the jobs nobody sees, the constant graft, organising, supporting players, helping events run, keeping the club moving week after week — all done for the love of the club and community.

This recognition is thoroughly deserved and everyone at Aspull RFC is proud to see you representing the club.

Thank you for everything you do for rugby, and for Aspull RFC ❤️🖤
