NEW SIGNING | McGuire Signs for the Knights

30th May 2024

Jasper McGuire has signed with the Doncaster Knights, bolstering our squad for the 2024-25.

McGuire, a loosehead prop, makes his move from Premiership Champions, Saracens. The loosehead has spent the 2023-24 season on loan at Ampthill developing his skills and gaining additional experience as a front rower in the Championship.

McGuire is a player that incoming forwards coach, Darren Fearn knows well having previously worked with him up at Newcastle University and through the English Universities programme. 

Doncaster Knights’ head coach Joe Ford has expressed his enthusiasm about the signing of Jasper McGuire. Ford highlighted McGuire’s “impressive physical presence and technical skills, noting that these attributes would significantly strengthen the team’s forward pack”. He also emphasised McGuire’s “potential for development and his eagerness to integrate into the squad, both of which align well with the club’s future ambitions.”

Ford, who has been with the Knights since 2020 and now transitioned to head coach in 2023, values not only McGuire’s on-field abilities but also his character and work ethic, which are essential for building a cohesive team environment. 

Jasper is available for sponsorship for the 2024-25 season – For more information, please contact Tom Foy at tomfoy@castle-park.co.uk or Tracey Owen at towen@castle-park.co.uk
