He suffered a bad knee injury but I think he was named in the u16s squad last wknd.

I believe Billy Jowitt has too. Leeds have offered contracts earlier this year, to try and get tied up before other clubs can approach.

Luke has signed for our U19s. Very very happy as he has looked the real deal from what I've seen in his performances for the Scholarship. Don't be too disheartened as in 12 months we will have our regular off field melt down and our young stars that John Bastian & co have developed and nurtured will be snapped up. Hope we finally have the off-field stability for our academy (which IMO has always been top draw despite all off-field rubbish)

McGuire - Comfirmed as leaving
Burrow - Believed to be retiring
JJB - Wants another year
Sutcliffe - hopefully stays
Handley - Would let go
Lilley - Signed new deal
Baldwinson - hopefully stays
Hallas - believed to have signed for Bradford permanent
Walters - would let go
Smith - hopefully stays.

Look to offload Briscoe too.

Jack Walker is also OOC

Technically he's not, he's still on an under 19s contract but is able to sign a full time if available.

Sutcliffe is OOC next season.

1 Golding, 2 Briscoe, 3 Watkins (C), 4 Moon, 5 Hall, 6 Lilley, 7 Myler, 8 Galloway, 9 Parcell, 10 Cuthbertson, 11 Ablett, 12 JJB, 13 Ward (VC), 14 Sutcliffe, 15 Delaney, 16 Singleton, 17 Garbutt, 18 Keinhorst, 19 Ferres, 20 Mullally, 21 Baldwinson, 22 Ormondroyd, 23 Oledzki, 24 Smith, 25 Walker, 26 Aston, 27 Bentley, 28 Jordan-Roberts, 29 A Sutcliffe, 30 Holroyd.

Plenty of young potential in that squad for the future but fear we need some more quality signings to remain in the hunt for trophies

I wouldn't hesitate to give Stevie Ward the captaincy. Whether or not he'd want the responsibility is another matter though.
