The club are pleased to announce that two players – Josh Olugbodi and Femi Akintoye (pictured), have been promoted from the Skolars Reserve side to train with the first team squad for 2023.

Prop, Olugbodi was the Skolars Reserve side’s Player of the Year for 2022 and impressed with his strong runs in the middle of the field. Centre, Akintoye also impressed the coaches with his athleticism and running power.

First Team Head Coach Joe Mbu said “Both Femi and Josh impressed when we watched them last year, they fully deserve the chance to progress into the first grade environment now over pre-season. We firmly believe in the pathway in London and there are opportunities for players to show us what they can do in the A side and potentially make the step up to the Semi professional ranks.
