Centre Ben Calland re-signs

Rochdale Hornets is delighted to confirm the re-signing of centre Ben Calland for the 2022 Betfred League 1 season.

Calland joined the club ahead of the 2020 season from Oldham, and has also featured in scholarship schemes at both St Helens and Wigan Warriors as a youngster. He has also previously been with Newcastle Thunder. 

“I’m really happy to sign a new deal and I’m looking forward to get back to training,” he said.

“Due to all the injuries, suspensions and Covid, there was a lot of rotation in the team last season which made it hard to build combinations. 

“We only saw what the team was capable of in the last few games of the season and it’s something we’ll look to build on in the next few months.

“Personally, I’d love to have a much more enjoyable season. I picked up a few unfortunate knocks last year and it was really frustrating having to watch as many games from the sidelines as I did.”

On the re-signing, head coach Matt Calland added: “Ben was really unlucky with injuries last season. His season never really got going.

“He is now back fully fit and is raring to go for next season.” 

Watch Ben Calland and Rochdale Hornets in 2022 with a season ticket for just £135 Adults, £110 Concessions, £20 Students and Juniors free.

Squad signed up so far: Fairclough, Bennion, Chase, Baker, Brearley, Tyrer, Fowden, Davies, McNally, Nixon, Forster, Aspey, Sheridan, Connaughton, Calland.
