Widnes Vikings are pleased to announce the signings of Lucas Green and Tom Whitehead on dual-registration from Warrington Wolves for the 2024 season.
Lucas Green,19, is a prop forward, whilst Tom Whitehead, 21, plays in the second row. Having both made appearances in the Super League for Warrington, they bring some good experience to the group.
Whitehead made his debut for Warrington against Salford Red Devils in 2022 and he made three appearances in Super League last year.
Green made his debut for Warrington last season against Wigan Warriors, going on to make five appearances in 2023.
Both Tom and Lucas are available for this Sunday’s friendly against Workington Town.
Head Coach Allan Coleman said: “It’s fantastic for us to get Lucas and Tom on the dual-reg.
“First I would like to thank Chris Hamilton and Gary Chambers for their help on this, to get them on board so early in the season is fantastic.
“They both played Super League last year for Warrington and showed the talent they have.
“I am a big admirer of young, up-and-coming players because they want to prove to everyone that they can go all the way.
“When you add them to the experienced championship players we have, I think that could be a great mix.
“It will be great to see them both make their debuts on Sunday in the Vikings colours.”
Everyone at the Vikings is looking forward to seeing Tom and Lucas in action this season!
