We are thrilled to share the wonderful news that Year 11 student, Louie Hudson has secured a Rugby League Scholarship at St Helens Rugby League Club. Congratulations Louie from all the staff and students at Co-op Academy Swinton! We are delighted for you and very proud!
After hearing his amazing news, we spoke with Louie the get the story in his own words…
“I am Louie Hudson and I am an U16s St Helens scholarship player and I play in the position of scrum half. I play for my local club called Folly Lane. Being on a scholarship means a lot to me, at first I was on trial for six weeks in September 2022 and then I was able to obtain Scholarship Status. This is something I have been dreaming of since I was little and hopefully one day I will be playing in their first team. On 23 April 2023 I will be making my debut against the London Broncos. I am looking forward to this as it will be a new challenge for me but it will also be a day I will remember forever.”
We would like to wish Louie the best of luck for his debut against the London Broncos on the 23 of April 2023.
