Blackmore heads to Huddersfield

Huddersfield have signed Ben Blackmore, who made his Super League debut in Castleford's last match of the season against Hull.

The 6ft 2in, 19-year-old Blackmore has signed a 12-month contract with the Giants and will join fellow newcomers Anthony Mullally and Ukuma Ta'ai for the start of pre-season training in November.

"Ben is physically very promising with good speed," said Huddersfield coach Paul Anderson.

"He is very hungry to grab the opportunity we are giving him and, alongside Matty Dawson, will really challenge the more established outside backs next year."
