One of Bradford’s best community club players is set to be given a huge opportunity in Betfred League 1.
Keighley Cougars have today confirmed that West Bowling and England Community Lions ace Elliott Cousins will link up with the squad during pre-season training with a view making a permanent stay in BD21 for the 2025 season.
Cougars head coach Jake Webster said: "Players like Elliott are a rare find.
“He's got a great work ethic, is very skilful and he offers a lot of versatility in the middle of the park.
“It's pleasing that the club is in a position to be able to give players a pathway to the professional game."
