London Scottish confirm three new arrivals ahead of the 2018/19 season

London Scottish can confirm the arrival of three new faces ahead of the 2018/19 season, two of who will come from Loughborough University.

The first ‘new’ signing is a very familiar face to the Athletic Ground. Front rower Jimmy Litchfield will rejoin the Scots after two seasons away from the club at Coventry in National One.

Joining Jimmy will be two new faces to the squad, both of whom will join from Loughborough Students in National One.

Luke Frost is a rangy back rower standing at 6ft3” and 108kg. He attended Loughborough University and studied Sports and Exercise Science.

Frost has been a consistent in the Loughborough Students side over the last few years and has built a reputation as a big ball carrier and an abrasive tackler around the breakdown.

Frost will be joined by fellow Loughborough alumni Ollie Adams. Adams who studied Sport Science and is a hooker, will be looking to emulate the feats of this season’s Young Player of the Season and fellow Loughborough graduate, Isaac Miller.

Frost and Adams were both previously part of the London Irish Academy before heading to University and both forwards were named in the original England Students training squad in January. Adams has been sidelined for a few months after a second knee injury but he will work with the London Scottish medical staff to regain his match fitness.
