OWEN TROUT NEWS |
07.07.25
Congratulations to Owen Trout, Leigh Leopards, who has been
selected in the 32-man England squad. Owen and his brother Kyle
were Stanley Rangers players from junior ages upwards. Diving
back into the Stanley Rangers archives here was Owen playing in
the Under 10s in a match against Drighlington in November 2009
scoring four tries and getting the Man of the Match award! Owen
played for Leeds Rhinos, Dewsbury Rams and Featherstone Rovers
before signing for Huddersfield Giants in 2020 and then on to
Leigh in 2024.
