Bradford Bulls - RedAmberandBlack.net • Planning for 2021
We get a mix of local lads and 'offf-cummed-uns.
Personally, I think being in the second tier can be sold as an advantage to the young players as they have a far bigger chance of breaking into first team open age at a Championship club than in SL. Whilst history no doubt plays some part in the club's attraction, I'd guess most kids would take advice about where to sign junior forms and the success level of our academy speaks volumes, to be honest, you need only look to SL rosters and the England squad to see that. As a championship club we play above our weight in the academy.
