EnglandHunslet RLFC are delighted to announce the signing of former Oldham young star Bailey Aldridge on a 12-month deal.
Bailey, 21, who started his junior career at Batley Boys, joined Oldham from Leeds Rhinos in 2023, signing a two-year deal with the Lancashire Club.
Aldridge, a hooker, was a key player for the Rhinos Under-18s side that won the Academy Grand Final trophy in 2022. He scored three tries in nine appearances during that season. He was an ever-present player for the Rhinos Reserves team in 2023 and was one of the top try-scorers in the competition that year before moving on to Oldham seeking a first-team opportunity in professional rugby.
The dynamic hooker made an instant impact at Oldham making 18 appearances in their 2024 League One winning title side and was voted the Fans’ Player of the Year.
He then made a successful transition to Championship Rugby making a further 13 appearances as Oldham made the Championship play-offs.
