Shaun Ainscough re-signs for 2021

Club captain and fan favourite Shaun Ainscough has agreed to a new deal for the 2021 season

Rochdale Hornets is delighted to announce that Shaun Ainscough has re-signed with the club for the 2021 season.

Ainscough, the current club captain, joined Hornets ahead of the 2019 season, scoring nine tries in 26 appearances. He becomes the third player to agree to an extension for 2021, alongside Sean Penkywicz and Callum Marriott.

"I'm really pleased to be signing a contract extension with the club and to be a part of what we have built as a team from players to backroom staff," said Ainscough. 

"Hopefully we can build on where we left off when the game restarts. 

"It was looking to be a great team that Matt Calland and the coaching staff and board have built, and to be a part of a club that is moving in the right direction and pushing for promotion in the 2021 season is exciting." 

On the extension, Calland added: "It's great to have signed Shaun for 2021.

"He was unlucky with an injury earlier this season, and I am sure he will come back stronger than ever.

"He is a player who always gets us on the front foot early in the tackle count and is a real character to have around the place."
