George Roberts

12th Dec 1997 1.83m/105kg Hooker

George was brought up through Wrexham RFC and became a part of the RGC 1404 pathway since 16, progressing through Coleg Llandrillo and RGC Age Grade into the Academy.

His accelerated progress saw him establish himself as the region's first choice hooker and claim the try of the season award.

Roberts spent all of his senior career at RGC, signing from the Academy in 2016.

The mobile hooker combined playing for The Gogs with studying Sports Science, winning a rugby scholarship at Bangor University.

Having graduated in summer 2019, Roberts turned his focus solely to his rugby and went on a steep upward trajectory in the 2019 season as he featured in 15 of RGC’s 17 league games with the Colwyn Bay side outscoring every other side in the division.

He was named Player of the Month for February 2020 and earned plenty of plaudits at the end of season review before signing a deal with Championship side Doncaster Knights in July 2020.
