Doncaster Knights bring home the Bacon

Wasps youngster Tom Bacon is set to join Doncaster Knights on loan for the 2020-21 season.

Bacon, who represented Ireland U18, first joined Wasps from Henley College, making his senior debut in the current season.

“I am very excited to play for Doncaster next season,” he said, “I know they are a very ambitious Club and as it’s my first season in the Championship I can’t wait to get as much as I can out of it. 

“I hope to bring pace and fast flowing rugby as I love get the ball in wide channels and take defenders on.   

“Hopefully the season will begin sooner rather than later as I am raring to get involved and show what I can do.”

Head of Recruitment and Academy, Kevin Harman said:

“We are extremely pleased that Tom is stepping up to the Championship with Doncaster next season. Having the pressure to perform week in, week out will further test Tom and his professionalism, a test that we believe he will come through after an excellent grounding last year with Rotherham.”
